title: A school nurse in Moscow.
abstract: When the opportunity arose for a one-month stay in Moscow, the author, a school nurse from Maryland, found much to share with her counterpart at an English-language school. Besides the inevitable similarities, the Russian nurse and the American discovered wide differences in their duties, reflecting the differences between our health care systems.
