ediccll 5tc1Hf Doctors Sm . THE N IGHTINGALE 1938 On the evening of December 9, 1927, a meeting of the physicians of La Junta and Rocky Ford was called by the superintendent of the hospital, Allen Erb. The purpose of this meeting was to or- ganize an association of physicians so that they might work in unison toward the hetierinenl of the hospital and physicians. The first objective of this organization was to meet the recom'- rnendations of the American College of Surgeons for a standard hospital. By the end of the second year all requirements were met and the hospital was placed among the class A hospitals of America. The aims of this organization are to secure and maintain a high standard of medical and surgical efficiency and to aid in the scien- tific advancement of its members. The meetings of this staff are held once each month for the purpose of engaging in a scientific discussion and for the consideration of all matters concerning the Welfare of the hospital. These discussions consist of case studies on unusual deaths, unfavorable or tardy conyalescense, and un- usual or unique cases. Frequently illustrated lectures are given with the aid of slides, reels, and X-ray films. As a school of nursing, we feel justified for the high esteem in which we hold our medical staff. Vfe feel that each physician takes a personal interest in the school and in his responsibility as an instructor of nurses. Because of their influence our students are led to form high ideals of the medical profession. In addition to the physicians represented in the preceding pages, the following are also associate meinbers: Dr. J. A. Lawson, Dr. U. J. Pitney, Dr. Stanley, Dr. Desmond, Dr. M. A. Farnsworth. STM: We
