The Sanitarium Hospital GSAM 371

“The hospital was erected in 1888, a building 100 x 60 feet, five stories high. Three of the upper floors of the building are used for the surgical department of the sanitarium, patients rooms, and wards. Offices for the charitable work of the institution are also found here. Twenty cottages, several of which are heated by steam, and lighted, like the main building, with electricity, cluster about it, and are filled with either patients or students. A school for the training of medical missionary nurses was organized July 1, 1884. During the first six months thirty-five students were enrolled.” GSAM 371.3
