The Rolls for WW1 list those who were attested in the NZANS, civilian nurses and massueses and VADs (Voluntary Aid Detachment) known to have been attached to Military Hospitals. Please note that the Rank of the nurses of the NZANS listed is the Rank held at time of attestation. Masseuse training in New Zealand began around 1912 and those who passed the course were issued with certificates. Some trained overseas and many nurses of the NZANS serving overseas during WW1 also trained as masseuses. Finally in 1920 New Zealand passed an Act known as the Masseurs Registration Act, 1920. It allowed for those who had passed exams and worked as Massueses prior to the Act being passed to Register. Upon Registration they were issued with a number and a badge which had their name and number in engraved on the back. Therefore where known their Registration number and date is included in the Rolls with the letter (M) beside their number. The Rolls are made up of two parts, service detail and personal detail which includes the New Zealand Registered Nurse, Registration Number,not previously listed. |
