Nurses Hear Talk
By Pathologist
A sizeable group of area nurses
and other interested persons at
tended the Alaska Nurses Associ
ation meeting held in Central
School last Friday evening and
heard Dr. Michael Bierne, path
ologist, on the Providence Hos
pital staff, speak on a patholo
gist’s work.
Dr. Bierne highlighted his in
teresting talk by explaining the
type work done in his field such
as assisting in criminal investi
gations, accidental deaths, suici
des, homicides, blood banks, and
clinical and laboratory work.
Before Dr. Bierne joined the
Providence Hospital staff the
only pathologists in Alaska were
those attached to the military bas
es. As a result physicians were
forced to send their work Outside,
although the military patholo
gists have assisted U. S. Commis
sioner’s in many cases. Dr. Bierne
stated that as soon as the labor
atory is completed physicians in
this section of Alaska will be able
to save many hours by being able
to have the work done in Alaska.
a set of T-V tables will be award
ed.
