2 Background These are the papers of the Director of Nursing Service at New York Hospital and of the Dean of the Cornell University-New York Hospital School of Nursing and its predecessors, the New York Hospital Training School for Nurses and the New York Hospital School of Nursing. Minnie H. Jordan, Anna D. Wolf, Bessie A. R. Parker, Virginia Dunbar, and Muriel R. Carbery created the records. In addition, the collection contains five boxes of personal papers and artifacts of Muriel R. Carbery from whom the Medical Archives received all these papers in While the Hospital s Nursing Service grew tremendously in size and function during the half century covered by these records, its administrative position in the executive arm of the New York Hospital remained unchanged. The School of Nursing, in contrast, was reorganized several times. Known from its founding in 1877 (July 9, 1877) as the New York Hospital Training School for Nurses, it was thoroughly revamped and its name changed to the New York Hospital School of Nursing upon moving to the new medical center in 1932: the curriculum was strengthened and expanded, matriculation requirements were raised, and steps leading to university recognition of the course of study were adopted. This reorganization led in April 1942 to the affiliation of the School with Cornell University under the name Cornell University-New York Hospital School of Nursing. Two years of college study became a prerequisite for admission and graduates were awarded both a diploma in Nursing from New York Hospital and a B.S. degree from Cornell University. During the war years, however, students were still admitted out of high school as well as with two years of college. Some students therefore received only a diploma from the Hospital. The Class of 1947 was the first full class to receive the academic degree. The Dean and faculty of the School were responsible for curriculum and all held joint appointments in the Hospital and the University. The New York Hospital continued to fund the School. This remained the School s administrative position until its demise in The last class graduated in 1979 and the official closing date is June 30, Scope and Content There was a close relationship between Nursing Service and the Nursing School. The School was, in fact, founded by the New York Hospital Board of Governors for the express purpose "of securing for the Hospital a corps of nurses superior to those usually employed in public institutions.. Nursing School faculty were usually also Nursing Service administrators and for all but ten of the fifty-one years covered by these papers the Dean and the Director were the same person. Thus, while the collection has been arranged in three series: Nursing Service, School of Nursing, and personal papers of Muriel R. Carbery, it was often impossible to make a complete separation among the three. Personnel statistics and job descriptions, part of the Nursing Service series, contain much information on the faculty of the School of Nursing. Studies and reports done by the School often shed light on conditions in Nursing Service. Researchers should be aware of this overlap and proceed accordingly In addition, the scope of these records closely mirrors the career of Muriel R. Carbery at the New York Hospital-Cornell Medical Center. Although there is considerable material pre-dating her tenure as Director/Dean, papers after she stepped down as Dean (1970) and Director (1974) are spotty. (See related collections) The Nursing Service material in this collection deals mostly with the daily management of nursing needs for patient care in the Hospital. Included are correspondence ( ), financial information, personnel statistics, job descriptions, and considerable material relating to the operating room, outpatient and surgical nursing departments. Information on the nurses' aide and practical nursing training programs, on union organizing among the nursing staff and on the clinical nurse specialist program can be found.

3 Among the records of the Nursing School are reports and correspondence dealing with the reorganization of the School in (Box 62); general correspondence, ; much material on curriculum, including textbook lists, ; a considerable addition to the Archives holdings on the Navajo Project; and the "Diary," a newsletter published by the School during WWII and sent to alumni serving overseas. Flora Jo Bergstrom, Librarian of the School, who later passed them on to Carbery, kept these. The records also contain information on continuing education, the Coronary Care Nursing Training Program, the Fund for Medical Progress and the Sealantic Fund Project, a 1960s training program in nursing for minority students. The personal papers of Muriel R. Carbery include correspondence with NYH-CMC colleagues; papers given at various conferences; and material relating to committee work done for the American Nurses' Association and other organizations. There is also considerable information relating to Carbery's service with the Ninth General Hospital during WWII and her subsequent career in the U.S. Army Nurse Corps.
