MEMORIAL HOSPITAL 1947 « MISS RACHEL HILL SMITH, R.N., SUPERINTENDENT OF NURSES MR. W. R. PETERS Drrecror or Hospirat ’ MR. S. J. ULMER, JR. ASSISTANT ADMINISTRATOR MISS GLENN LEE BOOKKEEPER MRS. KATHLEEN TATE LIBRARIAN THE HISTORY OF THE HIGH. In 1904, the High Point Memorial Hospital was established by the High Point Junior Order. The site of the present hospital was purchased by the Junior Order and the frame building on it was remodeled. Miss Josephine Coleman, R. N., a graduate of St. Andrews Home in Lynchburg, Va., was put in charge as first superintendent. May 12, 1912, Dr. J. T. Burrus and Dr. Guy F. Duncan bought the hospital. In the same vear a school of nursing was established. Mrs. Josephine McCraney, R. N., was made superin- tendent. She held this position until 1918 when Miss Gilbert Muse, a graduate of the High Point Memorial Hospital, succeeded her. Mrs. McCraney, Dr. D. A. Stanton, and Dr. C. E. Reitzel bought shares of stock in this new organization and the hospital was incorporated. From time to time changes were made in the hospital. ‘The right wing and the men’s ward was built and the entire building was brick veneered. ‘The back wing was added in 1913, and in 1914, the left wing, including the operating room was built. ‘Ihe nursing staff lived on the second and third floors of the hospital. In 1922 the nurses were moved to the present nurses’ home on Howell Street. Dr. H. W. McCain bought Dr. Duncan’s share in the hospital in 1916. In 1919, Dr. Burrus bought all the stock in the hospital except that owned by Dr. McCain. These two men continued to own and operate the hospital until Dr. McCain’s death in October, 1922. ©Dr. Burrus then became sole owner of the hospital. In 1922, Dr. H. L. Brockman came to High Point to take over some of Dr. McCain’s work and to establish a laboratory in connection with the institution. Miss Lillie Pearl Wood, a gradu- ate of the High Point Nursing School became the first technician. The present operating room, five private rooms, a nursery, and a small diet kitchen was added. At this time, Miss Hazel Johnson became part time instructor of nurses. She and the staff doctors planned a compre- hensive program for nursing education. ‘The school has consistently met the requirements of the North Carolina Standardization Board of Nurses’ Training Schools and of the American Hospital Association. The equipment and buildings of the hospital have been kept up to date by repair and replacement. An X-Ray department with new installations has been added: Dr. C. L. Gray is the roentgenologist. ‘The back wing has been extended to include a kitchen and additional patient’s rooms. In 1933 the hospital was converted from a private institution to one under community auspices to be operated by a self-perpetuating board of trustees. The financial transaction involved Dr. Burrus contributing two-thirds of the property valuation and the hospital section of the Duke Endowment contributed one-third. The name of the hospital was changed to and incorporated as the Burrus Memorial Hospital, Inc. Dr. Burrus, untiring in his efforts in build- ing up the institution, remained Chief of Staff. Dr. Burrus died June 6, 1936, and was succeeded by Dr. H. L. Brockman as Chief of Staff. He served in this capacity until the annual meeting in 1942 when Dr. E. A. Sumner was ap- pointed Chief of Staff. POINT MEMORIAL HOSPITAL On April 1, 1942, Mrs. McCaskill (Miss Gilbert Muse) who had endeared herself during thirty years of faithful, efficient, and consecrated service with the hospital and the community, was succeeded by Mr. J. P. Richardson, who was given the title of Administrator of the Hos- pital. He secured Miss Evelyn Heath as Superintendent of Nurses. Nineteen hundred forty three brought a number of changes to the hospital. In July, Miss Heath resigned and was succeeded by Mrs. E. Irby Long. The section of the hospital known as Green Hall was set up as an obstetrical department. An affiliation in Pediatrics with Children’s Hospital, Washington, D. C., was arranged. The accomplishment of these two steps did much to improve the nursing service and the standards of the school. In this war year, the hospital, under the guidance of Mrs. Long, made application to partici- pate in the United States Cadet Nurse Corps; the application was accepted. In 1943, the trustees began a campaign to raise funds for a new hospital. About $600,000. has been deposited in this fund. Nineteen hundred and forty-three saw the consolidation of all hospital facilities in High Point under one government. ‘This was done because the trustees realized that concerted effort and support would be required to successfully undertake the responsibility of providing a new hospital for the city. Mr. Richardson was made director of the combined hospital and Mr. W. R. Peters was named business manager. In June, 1944, Mr. Peters became Director of the hospital, succeeding Mr. Richardson. A new school building with a lecture room, Nursing Arts Demonstration room, and Diet Lab. was opened in November, 1944. In September, 1945, the school added to its staff an Educational Director, Mrs. Joseph Hawkins, R.N., A.B., and Mrs. Edith Moore Sherrod remained as Nursing Arts Instructor. Mrs. Long resigned October 31, 1945. Mrs. Hawkins served as Director of Education and Superinten- dent of Nurses until Mrs. Robert Johnston, R.N., was secured for the latter position. Mrs. Johnston was succeeded by Miss Rachel Hill Smith, the present superintendent, on April 22, 1946. In November, 1946, a new delivery room, adjoining Green Hall, was begun. At this time the addition is incomplete. At the annual meeting of the board of trustees in December, 1946, Dr. K. B. Geddie suc- ceeded Dr. J. E. Slate as Chief of Staff. The hospital and school are looking forward to a future of service and growth. Board of Crustees Carrer: DALTON = ) 3 2 eo Gees . Chairman RS 1 Axes Se oa? (co. ee V ice 2 Chairman and.

But that dream came true—as they sometimes do If hard enough you've willed. I saw a nurse in blue and white With a cap and a velvet band, And she was solemnly speaking, While a lamp was lit in her hand. I dreamed of the girl, night after night, And her lamp set fire to my soul. She became a part of my very being And her life became my goal. ? I’ve waited long to see who she was For her face was hid by the light. But with her lamp in her hand, I know she will stand So I can see her tonight. But somehow or other I know who she'll be, Though it’s hard to believe she is true. That [ll be the girl with the lamp in her hand, The girl in the white and the blue.

I’m sure each of the 22 of us ex- perienced an indescribable feeling as we received our first glimpse of the future. For the most part, our probation period was spent in the class room under Mrs. Sherrod’s watchful eye, with only a few hours on the wards each day. .After the first three months, two of our classmates decided that nursing was not for them; they dropped from our midst. At Christmas, all of us were thrilled and excited over the idea of two weeks vacation. On our return, we were ready to take up our studies anew and look forward to our duties as student nurses. Remember how proud we were when we received our caps that day back in January, 1945? We had a feeling of great importance and progressiveness. Time passed swiftly and soon we were Juniors, and very proud because it meant one more step up the ladder of our chosen career. Among the many things that happened during this year was the leaving of five more of our classmates at different times. We had the privi- lege of an affiliation of three months in pediatrics at Children’s Hospital, Washington, D. C., for this we are very grateful. On September 3, 1946, we became Seniors, and very proudly donned our black bands. We realized that this meant more responsibility than we had ever had before. And now, as we look forward to graduation and wearing the white uniform of a graduate nurse, we know that we have not, as yet, reached our goal, but we feel that our efforts have not been in vain. We wish to extend our appreciation to those who have helped us over the difficult situations of the past three years, and we will be forever grateful. CAROLYN FRYE HELEN GoFORTH Idorado, N.

A pediatrician treats the child; His work seems awfully small. While the physical therapist makes you work; Which doesn’t seem right at all. The ophthalmologist works on eyes, The windows of the soul; So their job isn’t pane-less; Quite pane-ful, on the whole. Psychiatrists are fond of nuts, The human kind, and Freud. The allergists tell what food and things And people to avoid. On obstetricians you depend For they have to deliver. The gastroenterologists Will cure that stomach quiver; And any cardiologist, When effort makes you pant, Can remedy the heartaches which Our Beatrice Fairfax can't. A phythisiologist works on lungs; He surely knows the bellows. The orthopaedists get the breaks, Quite bracing are these fellows. Each man must have his specialty And of his prowess sing; But the general practitioners Must know the whole darn thing. a os HRN AUSEY KI iRTS E Greensboro, N.

It also desires to provide better recreation and more comfortable quarters for the student nurses. Mrs. Chas. Idol has been the President for the past two years and the Guild has made splendid progress under her very capable leadership. During the past two years the Guild has had a ‘Fea and two outstanding Christmas parties, in the homes of the members, for the student nurses. Funds have been raised from a Snack-Bar at the Hospital, magazine subscriptions, thrift shop and tag days. Cubicle and portable screens have been purchased for the Hospital and the salary of a social worker at the Hospital is paid by the Guild. The Guild hopes to have a coffee shop in the new Hospital, the revenue from which will carry on the work of the Guild. The meetings are held quarterly for the present and the work is done through twelve chair- men and their committees. The officers for 1947 were elected in November and are as follows: President: Mrs. W. 'T. PowELL Recording Secretary: Mrs. Or1ANNA JAMES Vice President: Mrs. W. C. IDoL Corresponding Secretary: Mrs. N. M. Harrison Second Vice President: Mrs. W. B. Hau Treasurer: Miss Lucite JOHNSTON MRS. POWELL ALEXANDER MEDICAL SOCIAL WORKER History of the Women’s Guild of the High Point Memorial Hospital Ju a Humoral Vein We see by the Hit Parade that a number of new popular songs have been written to com)- memorate some of the diseases we treat, viz: For that case of bacterial endocarditis — “Always In My Heart.” For the obstetrician — “Night and Day.” For the large bowel obstruction — “I Hear You Colon Me”; or even “Alexander's Rectum Band.” And for that recurrent osteomylitis — “The Sawing Is Ended, But The Malady Lingers On.” A few from here and there: Did you hear about the moron who was afraid to go into the chicken coop because the chickens were laying for him? And the moron who wanted to get engaged to his best girl, so he telephoned her to give her a ring? é gs And about the moron who ate bullets so his hair would come out in bangs? Miss Lewis went into the photographer’s shop and, producing a photo of Jack, said: “IT would like to have this enlaiged.” “Would you like it mounted?” Miss Lewis: “Oh, yes, he’ll look nice on a horse.” The Washington bound train was just pulling out of the station when Miss Stine dashed to the ticket window: “Hurry up,” she said, “A round trip ticket!” “Where to?” “Why, back here. Where do you think?” Mrs. Hawkins: “Miss Amos, what are your plans after you finish your training?” Miss Amos: “I’m dog-tired, so I’m going to rest. For six weeks I’m going to just sit on the porch. After that, I’m going to start rocking—slowly.” “What this country needs,” said our post-operative patient, after reviewing the bill, good five cent scar.” Miss Shropshire: “Have you ever had any stage experience?” Miss Scism: “Well, I had my leg in a cast once!” Salesman: “Now, miss, that is the most becoming hat you have tried on.” Miss Sitz: “I agree with you. It is my own.” Salesman: “You put up a small deposit, and then you make no more payments for six months,” Miss Batchelor: “Who told you about me?” Miss Smith had been lecturing to the Senior class stressing the fact that they were prepar- ing themselves to help others. After considering this for sometime, Miss Burge solemnly asked, ‘ ‘What are the others here for?” “Miss Frye,” said Dr. Leath, “would you care to tell the class what happens when the body is immersed in water?” “Certainly,” said Miss Frye. “The telephone rings.” Miss Goforth, when entering training, was handed a pair of shoes. “What are these for?” she asked. “You wear them.” “Where?” “On your feet. You put them on and walk around.” “Yeah?” says Miss Goforth distrustfully. “Then what happens?” Miss Morgan: “Don’t you agree that Time is the greatest healer?” Miss Valentine: “‘He may be—but he certainly is no beauty specialist!”’ Dr. H.
