St George's Nursing Collection

  • 406 NU
  • Collection
  • c.1830-2015

Collection charting the development of nursing education at St George's and related institutions from the 19th century to the present day.

The collection includes:

  • Student registers, training and examination records, prospectuses and syllabuses
  • Administrative records, including committee minutes, reports, rules and regulations
  • Publications and printed material including books, newsletters and journals
  • Papers, photographs and artefacts from St George’s Nurses’ League
  • Personal papers, memoirs and memorabilia from individual nurses, including papers of matron Dame Muriel Powell (c.1910s-­1970s)
  • Photographs, including student photographs, group photographs and personal photo albums
  • Artefacts and objects, including items of nurses' uniform, badges, medals, and medical instruments
  • ‘Nurses’ Voices’ oral history project: interviews with over 100 former St George’s nurses and midwives (and related documentation), recorded 2003-2008

From in-­job training at the hospital, nursing education was gradually formalised during the latter half of the 19th century. From 1882 onwards, probationer nurses were offered lectures by the medical school and hospital staff; these lectures developed into a more formal syllabus, becoming compulsory for probationers in the 1890s, and the first formal examinations were introduced in 1894. The archive charts the development of nursing education from the late 19th century to the 21st century, including important changes in the demographics of the nursing staff, such as the arrival of the Windrush generation.

The collection encompasses training of nurses at St George’s and related institutions: for instance, nursing training at Victoria Hospital for Children and Grove Hospital were merged with St George’s School of Nursing in the 1950s, leading to the establishment of a branch of the School of Nursing at Tooting, where St George’s Hospital and Medical School (later university) moved in the 1970s from Hyde Park Corner, central London.

Substance Misuse in the Undergraduate Medical Curriculum Project

Reports and papers from the ‘Substance Misuse in the Undergraduate Medical Curriculum Project’ (Phase 1 – 2005-2007). This project was funded by the Department of Health, to work with all UK medical schools to develop consensus guidance on the integration of alcohol, drugs and tobacco training in medical undergraduate curricula. The guidance included key objectives and recommendations on providing high quality training and assessment.

Phase 2 of the project (2008-2011), had the following key aims:

• to support medical schools in integrating and implementing the Substance misuse in the undergraduate medical curriculum guidance into their curricula;
• to promote the development of a self-sustaining network of all English medical schools willing to pursue change in their curricula; and
• to complete and validate the teaching and learning resources (Toolkit) produced to advance the implementation programme.

The second phase of the project focused on implementing the guidance and validating the Toolkit. This was achieved through the funding and appointment of time-limited curriculum coordinators in English medical schools, working with local academic champions, to identify the suitability of the current substance misuse teaching and to recommend and support changes to ensure that substance misuse issues are fully covered in line with national guidance.

A National Steering Group was established to oversee both phases of the project and later aimed to promote further sustainability of the initiative. A National Coordinator convened an Expert Panel to develop the guidance and resources for the implementation work. A network of local academic champions and curriculum coordinators worked with the medical schools to deliver the changes needed to implement curriculum changes as appropriate for each school.

Phase 3, from 2012 onwards, concentrated on developing and extensively revising a set of factsheets, initially written in Phase 2, and which covered substance misuse relevant to a range of clinical conditions, groups of patients, specialities and settings.

The overall aim of the Programme was to enhance knowledge of the participants in a range of skills and interventions relating to tobacco free initiatives including smoking cessation and to provide them with resources to reduce smoking prevalence and related diseases within their home countries. Each programme was designed to reflect the specified learning needs of the participants as advised by EMRO and was structured around four broad themes made up of relevant sessions, each with learning aims:

· An introduction and overview of smoking and health
· National Policy, Strategy and Programmes
· Service Development
· Service Level Interventions

Croydon Alcohol Interventions Project

Contains papers from the Croydon Alcohol Interventions Project.

Set up in c.2008 through social inclusion funding, the aim of the project was to develop a programme of training on screening and brief interventions on alcohol for staff in Accident & Emergency settings at the Mayday Hospital, including the minor injuries unit and relevant mental health wards at the Bethlem Royal Hospital as used by Croydon residents; GP practices and health care staff.

The main activities of the project were as follows:

· To identify, assess, and gather data on the training needs of key health staff in GP Surgeries, Accident and Emergency/Minor Injuries Unit and Mental Health inpatient wards at Mayday Hospital.

· To deliver appropriate training packages and support for health professionals specified above on brief interventions and screening for people at risk from alcohol harm.

· To develop knowledge of the impact of alcohol upon specific diseases and specialities, such as pregnancy, liver disease, violence, and accidents

· To advise on appropriate tools and other resources for use in screening in a variety of settings, including the prioritising of medical and psychosocial problems associated with alcohol misuse.

· To build capacity for local training to be undertaken within Croydon’s Health structures.

With increased identification of alcohol misuse and the delivery of brief interventions for alcohol users within GP practices, A & E and wards, it was anticipated that this would have an impact on the workflow within A&E.
