ANCER IS A KILLER! That is a blunt fact known to virtually everyone. Many of the people in the medical world spend most of their working hours grappling with this sad, frustrating, persistent truth. Medical students are cautioned not to become emotionally involved in their patients' problems. But doctors are human-and they do become involved. The psychological and medical heartache that cancer brings to physicians in private practice is unmeasurable. One hardly need dwell on the cancercaused tragedies every medical man encounters. Because of them, research workers all over the world are devoting immense amounts of money, time and effort to the quest of the cause and a cure. But all of this is well known. What is perhaps less well known, however, is the growing concern with cancer in the field of industrial medicine. At Illinois Bell Telephone Company we regard it quite frankly as our number one longrange medical problem. And rightly so when you consider these statistics. Diseases of the heart and circulatory system take the biggest toll of lives in this country. Among Illinois Bell employees this is quite true. But cancer is the number two cause of death among our people-both active and retiredboth male and female. There may not be very much we can do about the heart-related deaths at this point, but there is an immense amount that we as a company can do to prevent many of the cancer deaths.

American Association of Industrial Nurses Journal, March, 1968 I NDUS'l'RIAL NURSING IS A SPECIALTY within the broader profession of nursing. The industrial nurse works in an environment that is larger and more demanding than some other nursing fields. Her function varies, depending on the size and type of company, work hazards, type of medical direction, position on the nursing staff and company policy. Her function is twofold. First, she brings to industry the techniques, procedures and understanding of the medical profession for the maximum benefit of industry. Second, she assists in promoting and maintaining the health of the workers through various types of industrial health programs. A great opportunity can exist in the management and administration of the medical unit. Sometimes this depends on the nurse's position on the nursing staff. It is an especially great challenge to the nurse who works alone. Any competent nurse wants to develop a program for the prevention, control and early detection of disease, and prompt treatment and care for industrial injuries. Proper communication between management and the industrial nurse is essential to this objective, for without it she would find the performance of her duties seriously handicapped. For her personal satisfaction and professional benefit, the nurse in industry is concerned with selfimprovement and continuing education. She can achieve this by attending workshops, seminars and university classes, and by active membership in professional organizations.

D o THE TRENDS OF EMPLOYEE HEALTH SERVICES provide the challenge to the occupational health team? Or does the challenge, itself, stimulate the changing trends in the Employee Health Services? Regardless, the occupational health nurse, along with the safety specialist, the hygienist, the physician and the psychologist, increases her skills and aptitudes to meet the rising standards in health care services. Increased emphasis is on the individual man. As the employee's total health, whether the problem be industrial or non-industrial, physical or emotional, relates to his job, it is of interest to the occupational health team. Originally, health services were usually confined to care of industrial illness and injuries and to emergency care for non-occupational illness. More recently the tendency has been toward including certain preventive services and health education in the programs. Today the word "crisis" may conjure up emotions and their potential. Emotional crises and their management by the occupational health nurse are influenced by the climate that prevails. The atmosphere determines the quality of care. But how is this developed? A secure relationship between the nurse and management enables the nurse to exercise her influence toward the foundation of a warm and healthful climate for occupational health services. It is the nurse-management relationship which most directly
