Description
English: Training Queen's Nurses- District Nurse Training at the Queen's Institute of District Nursing, Guildford, Surrey, England, UK, 1944
In the early stages of her training, a trainee District Nurse (left) injects a diabetes-sufferer with insulin during a home visit. She is accompanied by a Sister (right), on her first rounds. The original caption states that "whilst they are with the patient the sister says nothing, but afterwards she gives nurse her criticism of the way she has handled the case".
This photograph was scanned and released by the Imperial War Museum on the IWM Non Commercial Licence. The image was catalogued by the IWM as created for the Ministry of Information, which was dissolved in 1946. Consequently the image and faithful reproductions are considered Crown Copyright, now expired as the photograph was taken prior to 1 June 1957.

Licensing
This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate ((PD-old)) tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.
Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, ((PD-Art)) may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
