Due to the epidemic of typhoid fever at that time there was obviously need for a hospital to care for the sick. The Junior Order, composed of many of the town's leading citizens, conceived the idea of purchasing the prop- erty where the hospital now stands. The eranel esece was renovated and Miss Josephine Coleman, R. N., graduate of St. Andrew's home, Lynchburg, Virginia, was the first superintendent. At this time the financial condition became such that it was decided the best interest of the community would be served if the hospital was controlled by the doctors who used it. Dr. JoheT. Burrus and Dr. Guy F. Duncan agreed to take an option and shoulder the financial obligations amounting at this time to $2,500, and apid the Junior Order for its equity in the property. This took place May 12, 1912. The name of the institution was called the High Point Memorial Hospital. i Shortly after this arrangement was made the right wing and the men's ward was built. The entire building was brick veneered. In 1913 the back wing was added and in 191) the left wing, which included the operati:.g suite, was added. In 191), too, the nursing personnel was moved from the upstairs rooms to a house across the street. The hospital personnel and the student nursing group has grown with the years. The equipment and building have been kept up to date by repair and replacement, including an entirely new X-Ray installation. The back wing of the hospital was extended to include a modern kitchen, diet kitchen facilities and additional patient's rooms. In 1933 the hospital was converted from a private institution to one of community auspices to be operated by a self perteruating Board of Trustees. Because of Dr. Burrus' generosity and his untiring efforts in building up the institution, it was suggested that he be signally honored by giving the hospital his name, thus the name was changed to The Burrus Memorial Hospital, Inc. Dr. Burrus remained Chief of Staff. Dr, Burrus' death, on June 6, 1936, was a great loss to this whole section. Nineteen hundred and forty three brought several fundamental changes to the hospital. The section of the hospital known as Green Hall was set up as an Wbstetrical Department. An affiliation with Children's Hospital, ‘Washington, D. C., was arranged. The Trustees put on a limited campaign to raise funds for a new hospital. This year also saw the consolidation of all hospital facilities in High Point under one govern- ment, and the name was changed again to High Point Memorial Hospital, Inc., with a Boulevard Unit and the Washington Street Unit. The School of Nursing has increased the enrollment to fifty one students. This necessi- tated a new classroom, so in November 19) the new building was officially opened. Later a new modernly equip- ped labor and delivery room were added. Plans for the new hospital are in progress and we look forward to a future of service and growth. 9 ! i KARL SHEPARD, M.D. Chief of Staff Gre o , Aine Leachere, gfrienda, ken anol ath Canfeasre, ME, Cae ama yoationes amd Rindmess te Yan. 10 DR.

Only a few weeks in Nursing School and one of the girls decided she enjoyed chicken farming better so our number became seven. We spent four months in the classroom. We studied and pondered over hundreds of new words and drugs from seeds and weeds and bugs. During all this time we dreamed of the long white halls and how wonderful it would be to answer a call light. Since the war emergency had not passed we were taken to the floors at intervals and we found the hospital routine was strange and new and very interesting. Through the friendly help of head nurses and older students we reached the day of capping with joy. On March 3, 197 we welcomed eight new girls who were to become part of our class after their preclinical period. Before this time however only four remained. The rising junior class totaled nine students. Graduation day is always a great event and in Nursing School it is a great source of inspiration to every student. We were now juniors and the summer vacations were before us. Books were put away and we had a wonderful summer on the wards, playing tennis, or on the roof getting a sun-tan or just sleep- ing on off duty hours. It was a dream not to have to study every minute off duty. But as summers do this one of 197 ended and lessons were started. Our Pediatrics Affiliation in Washington, D. C., came this year. Sur- aes experience, which is one of our most interesting services, came and we learned why we had to know so much Anatomy and Physiology. With each bit of knowledge gained our respect for our superiors grew. ‘le realized the greater responsibilities of this profession we have chosen. Now as this, our senior year, draws to a close we are keenly aware of the fact this page is not our history. Our history is yet to be written. We have only started our education in the nursing profession. We have been guided well in the fundamentals, and we hope our real history will be worthy of the School of Nursing of High Point Memorial Hospital. aL EDITH ANN PARSONS ERNESTINE MATHIS JACQUELINE WILLIAMSON 32 Case of 1949 a eae oe =e BARBARA LEIGH CAUSEY Greensboro Ready for anything- - work or play- An all round girl in every way. 33 EDITH ANN PARSONS Troy Until her poetry you read.

He pulls us to the window, Points out people going by-- Tells us that we're foolisa, And makes us want to cry. He says, “You've got to stay in , You sap, ‘cause you're on call. Look, there's a lovely lady-- Probably going to a ball. She sleeps until eleven-- When your day is well begun, Then, after eating breakfast, Plays out in the sun. But you stay in for three long years To watch your arches fall-- And after six or seven months-- You never get a call. Take a glance--you're plain-- Hair like straw and face like wax. Come, look in the mirror--No! You'll never face the facts. Quiet! Mr. Gloom, says I, We've heard enough from you, After three years of training-- We all know what we do?
