Description
Parkland Hospital opened a School of Nursing in 1914. Hospital-based nursing schools were common in this era, and students served as ward nurses in their respective hospitals. In 1921, a home for the nurses and student nurses was opened adjacent to Parkland. Hospital-provided housing for nurses and nursing students was the norm at this time. This photo shows residents of the Nurses' Home lined up for lunch. The Parkland School of Nursing operated until 1955.
