Robinson When the Nightingale era of nursing was only in its twenty-fifth year in America, the Grady Memorial Hospital School of Nursing received its charter and is today the oldest chartered nurses' training school in Georgia. The petition for charter was filed by the Board of Trustees and the Medical Board of Grady Memorial Hospital and approved on March 24, 1898. Grady, the hospital which was to provide the field for nursing practice, had been in operation as a municipal hospital since 1892. The interest of the Boards in training the nurse in the arts of caring for the sick, assured the students entering the school, then as now, a sound and well-planned course. The chartered training school has had a three-year diploma program since its inception. Miss Adah H. Patterson, a graduate of Iohns Hopkins, who was serving as superintend- ent of nurses and in charge of a two-year certificate program, was appointed the first director of the school. She set the standards in keeping with the patterns of the best school in the country. The student nurses received a stipend, which ranged from 89.00 to 315.00 per month, from 1898 to 1933, when it was discontinued. At that time the hospital assumed the respon- sibility for providing uniforms which heretofore the students had had to furnish. From 1898 to 1922, probationers were admitted to the school at any time during the year. The period of probation varied from one to three months, but was subsequently estab- lished at six months for all candidates accepted. It was in 1922 that the first class, as a group, was admitted to the school. From that date, two or three classes have been admitted annually according to the needs of the hospital. The first students were housed on the second floor of the hospital. In later years they were moved to the building at the corner of Coca Cola Place and Pratt Street, which was connected to the main building by a covered passage-way. The building, now known as Hirsch Hall annex, had been constructed for an Isolation Ward, but was never used for that purpose. As the student enrollment increased, additional dormitory facilities were provided on the first floor of the hospital. The curriculum of the school was planned to cover a three year period. Formal classes were held twice a week by the director, lecture courses were given by members of the Medical Board, and the students acquired nursing skills on the various hospital services under the supervision of the head nurses. As early as 1900, a diet kitchen was added in which the students received instructions in dietetics. However, it was not until 1918, that the first fulltime faculty member, Miss Lillian Gumbee, was appointed. Today, the curricu- lum follows the standards set by the National League for Nursing and the requirements of the Georgia State Board of Nurse Examiners. The students are afforded broad clinical experience in all phases of nursing at Grady Memorial Hospital except psychiatric, which is obtained through affiliation with the Georgia State Mental Hospital. In her report to the Medical Board for the month of March 1898, Miss Patterson gave the student enrollment as 14. This figure, however, included seven students enrolled under the two-year certificate program. The last of these students completed training on October 27, 1899. Miss Patterson's staff consisted of four graduate nurses. Miss Leila Parker was the first graduate of the school. She completed the prescribed course on Ianuary 7, 1900. She returned to the hospital for the first graduation exercises on May 16, 1900, at which time she and her five classmates received diplomas and pins. Miss Parker received the highest honor. When Miss Annie Bess Feebeck, who was to serve in the dual role as Director of Nurs- ing Service and Nursing Education for thirty-two and one-half years, assumed her duties on April 16, 1910, her staff consisted of three nurses, thirty-two students, and two proba- tioners. Miss Feebeck's tenure of service was interrupted by military service during World War I. She entered the Army Nurse Corps in October, 1918, and returned to Grady Memorial Hospital on August 1, 1921. During her years of outstanding service, Miss Feebeck proba- bly trained more nurses than any other educator in Georgia. When she retired on Iuly 1, 1944, the school enrollment had grown to 279 and her faculty numbered fourteen. In 1929, the Education Department was established as a separate, but integrated, unit of the Nursing Service. It was at that time that the position of Director of Nursing Education was created. During World War I, thirty-one Grady Memorial Hospital trained nurses volunteered their services to their country and served with distinction wherever assigned. There were no fatalities among the group. During World War II, two hundred Grady Memorial Hospital graduates entered the Army Nurse Corps and served in all theaters of operation. Miss Louella White, Class of 1943, lost her life on Saipan. Lieutenants Frances Nash and Mildred Dalton were captured by the Iapanese and interned at Santo Tomas for three years. The Alumnae Association of the Grady Memorial Hospital School of Nursing was origi- nally organized in 1908 and reorganized in 1917. The objectives of the association are to stimulate improvements in professional work and good fellowship among the graduates of the School: to advance the interests of the hospital and to promote the professional and educational advancement of the School of Nursing. Every graduate of the School is eligi- ble for membership in the Association. HMBMi2 'H 'A'-1' HU- BETTY C. BLAKE Director of Nursing Service 8 In . W. PINKSTUN Executive Director X.-.

For three years, you worked hard and sometimes played hardy now you must use the knowl- edge you have to be the best nurse you can. I have enjoyed the experi- ence of working with you and learn- ing with you. 5 ? NANCY HEARN Best Wishes to the Class of 1981. 5 ARICA CARTER What is REAL? asked the Rabbit one day, when they were lying side by side near the nursery fender, before Nana came to tidy the room. Does it mean having things that buzz inside you and a stick-out handle? Real isn't how you are made, said the Skin Horse. It's a thing that happens to you. When Ei child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but REALLY loves you, then you become REAL. Q Does it hurt? asked the Rabbit. Sometimes said the Skin Horse, for he was always truthful. When you are REAL you don't mind being hurt. Does it happen all at once, like being wound up, he asked, or bit by bit? It doesn't happen all at once, said the Skin Horse. You become. It takes a long time.

LYNN GRIFFIN ' r The secret of happiness is profound appreciation and keen enjoyment of all Gods creations which sur- round us. It is an intangible factor created within us which automatically is reflected in a magnetic per- sonality. Happiness is love, unselfishness, and good will towards our co workers and fellow men. It is a peace of mind which causes us to glow and beam out- wardly and our lives to be zestful. It is a stimulation of that sense of wonder which is the voice of living, If we let goodness, kindness and love function within our souls, that is the secret of happiness. - Mary Helen Marshall- Sympathy sees, and says, I'm sorry. Compassion feels, and whispers I will help. Compassion is under- standing the troubles of others, coupled with an urgent desire to help. Y In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Iesus concerning you. lThes 5:18 With many thanks to my fellow students, instructors, parents, and husband for their support and understanding.

It was built as a Memorial to Henry W. Grady, one of Georgia's most illustrious and beloved orators and statesmen. Funds for its erection were raised by private subscription. The hospital was opened for the reception of patients in Ianuary, 1892. Hirsh Hall was erected in 1922 and housed white nurses. It accommodated 90 nurses. The Education Department including offices, classrooms, library and science laboratories were in the basement. Thirteen students lived in a dormitory room in the basement also. . ' I -5 vl .

GLASS OF 1905 In 1920 Hirsch Hall, the first perma- nent nurses' residence, was erected. This building was made possible by gifts from loseph Hirsch and Charles Currier and funds' provided by the City of Atlanta. This edifice not only provided comfortable and convenient living accommodations for the students and graduate nurse personnel, but afforded modern and well equipped classrooms, E It I I 'i ,.- ,, -1- .-fr 9 I.. . , J lf, f f , ,pa r W7 Mi S adequate library, and labo- ratories for the school. In 1942 when the hsopital received an appeal from the U.S. Public Health Service to provide large numbers of graduate nurses to serve the country's military needs, the hospital was unable to meet the demand because of a lack of residence facilities for additional students. The federal government pro- vided the necessary funds for a new building, which was designed to accommo- date 122 students. The build- ing, completed August 5, 1944, was designated as Fee- beck Hall in honor of Miss Annie Bess Feebeck. THE GRADY MEMORIAL HOSPITAL SCHOOL OF NURSING PIN In the year 1898, when the first nursing class was approaching graduation, the officials needed to decide on a pin for the training school. Dr. I. H. Iohns I 'i' of Westminster, South Carolina, who was serving his internship in the hospital at this time, was asked to design this pin. He selected a round design with the maltese cross in the center. The cross has been used since before the time of Christ, and was used later on flags of many Christian countries. The maltese cross was used primarily to signify knighthood. He thought this would be an apt design to represent the accomplishments of a nurse completing her training at Grady Memorial Hospital. - Contributed by Katharine Iohns, daughter of Dr. I. H. Iohns. THE HISTORY OF THE CAP WORN BY THE STUDENTS AND GRADUATES OF THE GRADY MEMORIAL SCHOOL OF NURSING When Miss Adah Patterson became the first superintendent of Nursing at Grady, the nurses were ,Qi lk wearing a very impractical cap made of muslin. After qt lla p much thinking and looking for something that would E be more practical and easily cared for, she found an 6 idea in the new cap of the Montreal Royal Victoria Hospital, Montreal, Quebeck, Canada. The cap she designed is very much like the one the white students and graduates wear, except that it is now pleated with a pin instead of the draw string formally used. It is a half circle shaped piece of cloth sewed, with a few gathers in the center, to a cuff. The pleats are evenly spaced and are held together with a safety pin. The cap is worn high enough on the head so that it may be seen from the front, and the points of the cuff may be worn either up or down. The uniform designed in 1898 for the Grady stu- dents consisted of a white and pink striped ging- ham dress with basque waist, Bishop's collar, leg- of-mutton sleeves, which buttoned to the elbow and over which were worn stiff white cuffs to the elbows, a separate floor length full skirt. The white apron, which was worn over the dress, was made with floor length full skirt and separate bib. White cap, black shoes and hose completed the uniform. In 1903, the white and pink gave way to blue and white stripes, the sleeves became straight, a white detachable Bishop's collar and narrow cuffs were substituted. The skirts remained floor length, how- ever. In 1914, the sleeves were shortened to the elbow, stiff white cuffs were added, and the waist featured a V-shaped neck, with which was worn a white Buster Brown collar. The dress was short- ened to four inches from the floor and the apron at ,. f skirt was a half-inch shorter. These uniforms were discarded in 1933 in favor of solid blue, one-piece uniforms. White apron and bib, white' cap, white shoes and hose completed the students' attire. The dress was designed with a turned back collar, draw string at the waist, short sleeves with turned up cuffs. Skirts of the dress and apron were shortened to twelve inches from the floor. inf, 1' CLASS CLASS 1915 CDF 1905 CLASS CDF 1923 TO BEA URSE ..
