Direvtor of the School of Nu1'si11 g Seven i U65 , Joyifsz acfaf HE medal which bears my name was established in 1928 for the purpose of stimu- lating the pupil nurses of the Rex Hospital Nursing School to excel in their studies and their practical work. It is awarded each year to that mem- ber of the senior class who during her three years of training makes the highest com- bined grade in scholarship and deportment. The degree of scholarship is indicated by marks obtained on recitations and examina- tionsg the proliciency in deportment in- cludes personal conduct and attention to pa- tients. During the twenty-five years that I was an instructor in the Nursing School I Dr- Hlllffff A- Hvustvr l1fPS0P1ff !l fhf' I?01fsff'r Mcflul realized that the value of a nurse in the to Sarah L ', Umm hospital and in her career after graduation depended upon a balanced union of the two qualities for which the medal is otfered. The resul.s seem to have justified the reason for its establish- ment and its continuance. Since my retirement from the active duties of teaching I have stressed in a special lecture each year the four attributes deemed essential in the make-up of the ideal nurse. They are: An unswerving char- acter, a working conscience, good health, and consummate tact. The possession of these in full flower and the required cultivation of head, heart and hand lead to 'perfect performance in the high calling of a truly trained nurse. Hl'BPIR'l' A.

On August 4, 1893, the trustees bought the old Manly Mansion. The building was repaired, and an annex of two stories for colored patients was erected. The Work was organized, nurses were engaged and the hospital opened for patients May 1, 1894. The Raleigh Academy of Medicine agreed to give their service to charity in rotation. In 1896, an eight-room annex was built for paying patients. A cornerstone for a new building was laid at a massive ce1'emony in 1908. The hospital continued to grow and on May 31, 1937, the hospital was moved in another new building on St. Marys St. It is now a two-hundred bed hospital that qualifies under the standard of the Ameri- can College of Surgeons as an accredited hospital, and is recognized by the American Medical Association for the training of internes. z 4 Ten U55 Cgcfioof of wzabz HE Rex Hospital School of Nursing was opened in 1894. The school was estab- lished on an educational basis, fillil the stu- dents are given the advantage of progres- sive changes in nursing education. The aiin throughout the three-year course is to give to the patient the best possible nursing care, and to the student nurse the kind of train- ing that will prepare her for a profession with unlimited possibilities and deep hunian need. The capacity of the hospital and the gen- eral out-patient departinent affords ample clinical material for the students, both as to the nurnber and variety of cases. The student nurse has a rich and varied experi- ence in inedical, surgical, obstetrical, pediaf tric, psychopathic, laryiugologif-al, gyneco- logical, ophtlialniological, and orthopedic nursing. .Instructions with practice are also given in the operating rooin, diet kitchen, and out-patient department. The Rex Hospital School of Nursing is listed among the accredited schools for nurses in the United States. Graduates of this school a1'e eligible for nieinbership in all local and national organizations. They are also eligible for service in the Anicrican Red Cross and in the Ariny and Navy Corps.

DEPARTMENT HEADS AND PERSONNEL Fifteen g 2 wziilz Education HE Rex School of Nursing is the 'old- est school of nursing, and one of the largest accredited schools of nursing, in North Caro- lina. In the past few years many progres- sive changes have been made. The student body, consisting of eighty-eight students, is larger this year than ever before. We feel that this department has been privileged in obtaining the teaching cooperation of such an excellent hospital staff. Our classrooms consist of a chemistry lab- oratory, a nutrition laboratory, two lecture rooms, a demonstration room, and a library. All students have access to these at any time during the day. We consider the library quite an asset to the school. During the past few months many books, both reference and general, have been added. The course of instruction covers three years, and is based on the Curriculum for Schools of Nursing issued by the Educational Committee of the National League of Nursing Education. The changing nurs- ing school curricula is a constant challenge to the student nurse. Because the philosophy of nursing education is progressing, our school is providing her students with more adequate preparation for hos- pital and community service. 67312541 HE out-patient clinics of Rex Hos- pital meet daily in the afternoons from Monday to Friday inclusively, and also on Wednesday mornings. In the course of a year, the various types of patients make al- most 20,000 visits to the clinic. The differ- ent clinics held are: luetic on Monday, medical, cardiac, and skin on Tuesday, genito-urinary on Wednesday morning with prenatal on Wednesday afternoon, surgical and gynecological on Thursdayg and pedia- trics on Friday. The Junior League spon- sors the white prenatal clinic on Wednesday and the pediatrics clinic on Friday. Service cases for tonsilectomy and adenoidectomy are examined and admitted on Monday and Wednes- day afternoons for operation the following morning. Follow-up surgical dressings are done daily, Mon- day to Thursday, from one to two o'clock in the afternoons. Traumatic and other serious eye cases are referred to the private office of the ophthalmologist on service. The hospital-sponsored clinics are staffed by at least one visiting doctor, an interne who is assisted by the medical resident, a graduate nurse and two to three senior nurses. The clinics run by the Junior League have very much the same type of staff, except that members of the Junior League take an active part in the management of the patients. The clinics are located at the western end of the ground floor at the new Rex Hospital. Waiting rooms provide ample seating capacity for both white and colored pa- tients. Six rooms make up the examination and treatment suiteg however, three of these rooms are re- served for the use of the Junior League. Sixteen LL'Z49E'Zy N nearly every hospital the Department of Surgery is the largest and most active. This is true of our hospital. We are very proud of our Surgical Department, not only because we believe that ours is the best in the State, but also because of the amount and character of work we contribute and the training and experience we derive from it. At the head of the department is the chief of the Surgical Service. There are also six active surgeons who serve two months each during the year. They care for the service and unassigned patients who come for treatment in the emergency room, or in the out-patient department or for hospitalization. To the emergency room at all hours of the day and night, come all kinds of minor accidents which are cared for by the nurses and internes. In the well-equipped clinic or out-patient department we acquire considerable experience in working with the internes and junior surgeons. The surgery is complete in all the essential details. There are three active operating rooms under the supervision of an experienced graduate nurse and her assistant. There are two most efficient anesthetists and sufiicient student nurses to assist in these operating rooms. It is here that we realize the absolute necessity of accuracy, speed, and safety in all details pertaining to operating-rooni technique. 5Vlecficine HE medical service of Rex Hospital in the past three years has undergone a remarkable increase in the number of patients treated. Formerly, surgical admissions to the hos- pital outnumbered medical admissions by about two to one. At the time of this writing the number of patients admitted for medical conditions has equaled those for surgery for the past six months and shall probably continue to do so. With this growth the charity service has more than kept pace. The thirty-two beds allocated for service patients in our hos- pital have been full constantly and the lengthy waiting list taxes at all times the best thought of our house officers in their efforts to decide who is most worthy and needy as well as next in line of admission. Of these thirty-two beds the medical service utilizes half and the conditions treated truly comprise the most important afiiictions of the citizens of this community. Seventeen Dgafefziai What 'nsirrr-if HE Obstetrical Department of Rex Hospital is one of the best organized and - most complete units of the hospital. It has one entire hall which is composed of eight private rooms, three semi-private rooms, one three-bed ward, and three four-bed wards, one nursery and two delivery rooms, which contains all necessary instruments and sup- plies, including a new resuscitator for new- horns. The obstetrical nursing staff is composed of supervisor. assistant supervisor and sev- eral student nurses during the day, and a supervisor and several student nurses during the night. Each student nurse has to serve two months on the hall and one month in the nursery. The obstetrical staff is composed of the three full-time obstetricians on the hospital staff, but all the doctors have full access to the department at all times for private patients. The obstetrical staff super- vises the care of all charity patients. The obstetrical interne has a two and one-half months' service. He is responsible for all charity pa- tients. He has the opportunity of delivering all cha1'ity patients tunder the supervision of the obstet- rical staffl and assisting on all private patients. VVard rounds are made at least once a day by the in- terne and a member of the obstetrical staff. Practically all of our charity patients come through our Prenatal Clinic which is held once a week and attended by two members of the obstetrical staff and the obstetrical interne. This clinic was or- ganized by the Junior League of Raleigh and we are deeply indebted to them for their services. With continued improvement, we hope that we will be able to give mothers and infants a brighter outlook on life. Ln,-..-T - .J 1 Qadiafzici HE heads of this department, Doc- tors A. S. Root, Charles Bugg, and Charles Williams, have made this service a very in- structive and interesting one, not only to nurses, but to internes as well. Children's Hall proper is divided into three wards and several private rooms. The largest of the wards, which faces the east, has a capacity of twenty-five beds. These are separated by partitions so that isolation l precautions may be observed if necessary. At the far east side of this ward, is a large inclosed sunporch which is equipped with a Wesco sun lamp, a small but complete library and a set of infant scales. The two smaller wards have a capacity of three and four beds respectively, the former facing the south, the latter the north. The so-called Treatment Room is equipped and used for dressings, spinal punctures, hypodermoclysis, intravenous infusions. A separate unit is the Formula Kitchen, where bottles are sterilized for use, and where formulas are mixed under aseptic precautions. There are usually eight to ten nurses on duty on this hall in the course of twenty-four hours. Five of these are senior nurses. Eighteen Lgtffiofzacfici HE Orthopedic Department includes the fracture service and the regular ortho- pedic service. The fracture service is about what one would expect in a general hospital of this size. Sometimes it is very active and at other times there is a lull. Even so. there are enough fractures so that all the nurses can get a. good idea of how such pa- tients should be cared for. The orthopedic service proper shares in the State-wide orthopedic program. The l North Carolina plan for the treatment of l cripples is believed to be one of the best de- veloped in the United States in proportion to the population of the State. The North Carolina Ortho, pedic Hospital at Gastonia, a large and splendidly equipped institution, is the center of the plan. It is supported entirely by the State. In addition to its own expenditures, the State receives its proportionate share of federal aid for cripples, and this money is expended under the dirertion of the State Board of Health. There are in the State twenty-two general hospitals which are approved as being properly equipped and staffed for this work. Rex is one of these hospitals. It receives crippled children from many communities in Eastern North Carolina. During the past year forty-one children and nine adults were treated in Rex as a part of the State program for the treatment of needy cripples. Dc-Jef, ' HE Rex Hospital X-Ray Department is well equipped with space, efficient per- sonnel, and adequate equipment. It is located on the third floor west wing adjacent to the operating, cystoscopic, and cast rooms. and is housed in seven rooms which are as fol- lows: reception, deep therapy, large radio- graphic, reading, iiling, drying, and cysto- scopic. The equipment of the department is adequate, except for radium, of which there is none. The mechanics of the de- partment includes a deep therapy, a cysto- scopic x-ray table, a bedside unit, a com- plete set of transformers, a radiographic with built-in bucky diaphram and fluoroscope, a stereoscope with two viewing boxes, a film dryer, film tiles, etc. The department, during the past year, had eleven hun- dred and twenty-six patients, took twenty-seven hundred and eighty-seven films, and made one hundred and Hfty-seven Huoroscopic examinations, besides having thirty-six patients who received sixty-five deep therapy treatments. Nineteen fago 'zczfoz INCE the beginning of medicine as true science, certain laboratory procedures have been taken for granted. These tests were relatively few in number and were performed exclusively in the practitioner's office. As medical science grew, and as hos- pitals were founded, it became more and more desirable for many laboratory pro- cedures to be performed in the hospital with the aid of a specially trained st-aff. Today we recognize that the clinical and path- ological laboratory is an integral part of every well-organized hospital. While good medicine can be practiced without the aid of more than 3, few Simple 1a,b01-atm-y tests, there are many patients who require numerous accurate laboratory deteylninationg if we are to honegtly say that we are giving the patient the best that medical science can offer. The management of dia- betes, the accurate diagnosis of cancer, and the typing of pneumococci are instances where the labora- tory iindings are of paramount importance. The laboratory, then, is one of the essential departments of a hospital, which when properly in- tegrated with the work of the staff, and with good nursing care, enhances the effectiveness of all, so that our purpose of healing the sick can be accomplished promptly and intelligently. The general well being of the patient, however, is more dependent on the quality of the nursing care than we often realize. 173 6031272610 S the result of the long recognized need of an adequate pharmaceutical unit in the hospital plant, the pharmacy began operation in August of 1938. Whereas the primary purpose of this de- partment is to supply proper medication to the patients, there are other important ser- vices rendered by the pharmacy. The chief pharmacist acts as secretary of the pharma- ceutical committee composed of members of the medical staff. This body deals with problems of a pharmaceutical nature as they arise. An adequate pharmaceutical refer- ence library is maintained. The pharmacy has immediate supervision over the routine preparation and sterilization of injectable medications tdextrose, physiological salt solution, etc.J, the manufacture of pharmaceuticals, the dispensing of drugs and pharmaceutical preparations, and the handling of narcotic drugs. In addition, the pharmacy handles the purchase of drugs, chemicals and pharmaceutical prep- arations used by the hospital as a whole. Certain necessary biologicals are properly stored in the drug room, others are easily available through this department. The pharmacy is maintained and operated as a unit of the hospital.

DEAR Miss O'T00l,IC AND Miss MoRo.xN: I am writing you a letter for your little probies, who appreciated you so much as their instructor during their preclinical period. It was a landmark in each of the thirty-two 4325 girls' lives when they arrived at the Nurses Home to be welcomed to Rex Hospital's School of Nursing. We soon met each other and were introduced to a schedule planned for us, and to you and Miss Evelyn Morgan, who were to guide and direct us through the time that might be a victory or a Waterloo. You remember us in the classroom working and giving our best with a cap as a reward for four months' work in every girl's mind. Vxfe remember your patience, and interest that you always had for us. We were proud of ourselves, but we were afraid. A preclinical period doesn't last always: at the end of four months, ours came to a close. We were very happy when Miss Corker invited the twenty-four 1241 of us who had won the victory to the lounge and presented us our caps. We were real nurses, so proud, so dignified and so happy. Our first four months were over and you went with them-just yourself went away, for your spirit stayed. Our Hrst year was filled with events. VVe found ourselves a class not organized. Therefore, we met and elected Jean Bostick, presidentg Margaret Jewett, vice-president, but Margaret went back to school, so we elected Jane Hartsell vice president, Ruth Kearney, secretary: and Flossie Mae Combs, treasurer. More responsibility was given us. We began night duty, and were given more patients to be responsible for. Our junior year came to a close. As Intermediates we realized more the seriousness of our profession. Our number was now reduced to twenty-two 1221. We were doing bigger things and appreciating more the hospital, its staff and what it all stood for. It was September 2, 1939, that Miss Corker invited us to her ollice and gave us our black bands. We were seniors! Time to organize a senior class, We elected Sara Lee O'Berry, president: Leola Simmons, vice-president: Rosa Boykin, secretary, and Esta Ledford, treasurer. Everybody tried so hard to make us happy. Our doctors gave us a lovely dance at the Sir Walter Hotel, January 4, 1940. Preceding the dance, Dr. and Mrs. Turner entertained us at a buffet supper at their home. We, as seniors tried to give our earnest and serious efforts to the hospital and to the sulfering needs of humanity, to organize and publish again another volume of the NIClII'l'IN4l.XI.l'2. We are now graduates, twenty-two 1223 hearts planted deep with our trained efforts to help mankind. Our love is always with you and we are thankful for you. Sincerely, CLASS OF 1940, EI,IZAlil'I'I'II BRo.xpw1f:LI,, Hisforifm Thiriy-Eighf ggtofzfiac Since traveling is educational as well as interesting I decided to reward myself with a tour of the United States for the work I have accomplished in the past live years as operating room supervisor at Bellevue Hospital, New York City. It is now 1950, and as I am getting no younger, it would be interesting to locate my classmates in the Rex Hospital School of Nursing Class of 1940. Sarah Lee O'Berry, who has been office nurse for Dr. Hugh Thompson since his arrival in New York City two years ago, was very much in favor of a vacation, and willingly consented to be 1ny companion. Our first stop was to be in Chicago. Registering at the Biltmore Hotel, imagine our delight and surprise at finding Jean Bostick as the hostess. At last she is in a position where she can use her winning personality to a good advantage. She informed us that Margaret Renegar had given up active nursing and was to be married in a few days there in Chicago. That was no surprise as Margaret is still as pretty as a picture. From Chicago we went by plane to Lincoln, Nebraska. No one could have been kinder to us or more thoughtful than the stewardess on our plane, Miss Virginia Par- sons. Small wonder people prefer travel by air now. At the Davis Memorial Hospital in Lincoln, Miss O'Berry and I found Miss Vir- ginia Dare Rivenbark. She is now supervisor of the Pediatrics Department. Our stay here was brief but enjoyable. We motored through the country to Sacra- mento, California, where we found Jane Hartsell in charge of the Emergency De- partment of the Sacramento General Hospital. She told us that Margaret Saunders was the county health nurse with Olive Brady as her most able assistant. From here we continued our trip to Los Angeles. On an excursion to Catalina Island, imagine our surprise at seeing Esta Ledford. She and her husband are honey- mooning in California. After our brief stay in California, we motored through New Mexico and into Arizona. We had heard much of the wonderful hospital just established on the Indian Reservation near Phoenix by Marguerite Pierce and Kathryn Ellwanger, and were anxious to see it. What a pleasant surprise to see them after ten years. We then continued our trip southw-ard. On arriving in Hermosillo, Mexico, we learned that Mary Hagwood had at last realized her one ambition. She is doing home mission work among the Mexicans. Crossing the Gulf of Mexico on a small steamer, we found Alice Painter as nurse and hostess. Her sympathy and understanding certainly made the trip more enjoyable for many. Thirty-Nivle fptofzfisckzj - - -continue At DeLand, Florida, we learned that Rosa Boykin has just been appointed Dean of the School of Nursing of the University of Florida. Rosa has certainly succeeded in her work. She told us that Lena Lyles is living in Miami with her husband and their two children. When we reached St. Augustine, we learned that the U. S. S. Roosevelt had docked the day before. What a pleasant surprise to find Flossie Mae Combs as a nurse on this ship. She told us that naval nursing is just as interesting as she had expected. After a rather hurried trip up the Atlantic coast, we arrived in Wilmington. There we learned that Vivian Simmons was head of the Surgical Department at James Walker Memorial Hospital. From there we came to Raleigh to see how things were at our Alma Mater. We found that Elizabeth Broadwell is now superintendent of the Rex Hospital School of Nursing. Louise Harward is the opera.ting room supervisor. After we left Raleigh, we motored through Winston-Salem. He1'e we learned that Carrie Taylor and her husband. a famous surgeon, are living in Albany, New York. They are the proud parents of twin boys. Our next stop was in Baltimore, Maryland. To our surprise we learned that Ruth Kearney is superintendent of the Madison Home for the Infirm in the suburbs of Baltimore. From Baltimore we continued to New York City where we were soon to resume our work. Both Miss O'Berry and I had enjoyed our vacation, and it was indeed a pleasant surprise to learn that all of our classmates of 1940 were so successful. VIRGINIA HINMAN. Forty fait cmd!

Miss Nelson replied: Oh, I'm just pinching him so I can keep him awake long enough to get him to sleep. When Dr. Herring asked Miss Bostick what anatomy is, she replied: Anatomy is a human body. It is divided into three parts, the head, the chest, and the stomach. The head holds the skull and the brains, if there are any, the chest holds the liver and the lites, and the stomach holds the entrails and the vowels which are a. e, i, o, u, and sometimes w, and y. The other day Miss Branch came to the diet kitchen with tears in her voice, Please Mrs. Tewkesbury, I've broken something, I'm very sorry, but I couldn't help it. The cucumber was crooked and seeing it was on the tray of that special patient I tried to bend it straight. IOKES SNAPSI-IOTS S O Can You imagine-- 1. Miss Nelson not keeping the students busy? 2.
