Barbara Bates Center for the Study of The History of Nursing [Contact Us]
1871-1988
Creator:
Presbyterian School of Nursing.
Extent: 152 linear feet
This collection documents the founding, flourishing and eventual closing of the Presbyterian School of Nursing, a hospital-based
nursing school in Philadelphia. The hospital itself was founded in 1871 under the sponsorship of the Presbyterian Church.
Its nurse training program was begun in 1889. The collection's strength is the relative completeness of student records, good
documentation of the school's curricula and teaching materials. The supportive role both the Ladies Aid Society and the Alumni
Association played in the growth of the School are evident in these records.
