Collection History

This dynamic artificial collection began in 1989 with nurses contributing artifacts and ephemera from their alma maters and their careers. Many schools of nursing represented in this collection include Binghamton City Hospital, St. Catherine’s Hospital, Albany Memorial, Lincoln School, Long Island Hospital, Samaritan Hospital, Ellis Hospital, St. Mary’s Hospital, Presbyterian Hospital, Genesee Hospital, Syracuse University, Craig Colony Hospital, Fulton Montgomery Community College, and Champlain Valley School of Nursing.

A portrait of nursing leader Adelaide Nutting and The Life of Florence Nightingale, a book bearing an inscription by Miss Nutting, are two of the artifacts. Uniforms, caps, and capes enrich this collection. Also included is a public health nurse’s bag used at the Schenectady Visiting Nurses Association, ca. 1918. Teaching tools such as a collection of glass slides depicting the history of nursing or the scales with nineteen jars of “raw materials” (botanicals for medicines) and the Bellevue Hospital Formulary give insight into how students learned about pharmacology at St. Mary’s School of Nursing in Amsterdam, NY, circa 1920.

Scope and Contents Note

This collection consists of artifacts, textiles, and ephemera representing various donors and schools of nursing. There is only one series presented as an inventory box and folder list.
