Registers and training records

Registers and training records relating to nurses who trained or worked at St George's and other hospitals in Wandsworth (most of which were subsequently absorbed into St George's), Surrey (connected to St George's indirectly via the affiliation with Kingston) and South West London

Pathology Museum

Prescott Hewett was appointed the first curator of the museum in the 1840s, and he also introduced the practice of keeping post mortem books. The curator of the museum was also responsible for conducting post mortem examinations together with the assistant curator, and the post mortem casebooks frequently refer to pathological specimens preserved in the museum. Specimens were regularly obtained from post mortem examinations or during surgery at the hospital, and the museum has continued to be an integral part of teaching at St George's.

The first printed museum catalogue was published in 1866, edited by John William Ogle and Timothy Holmes. This was apparently based on a scheme by Henry Gray, which however has not survived.

The museum was rearranged in 1881, and a new numbering system was adopted. In 1882, a supplementary catalogue, edited by Isambard Owen, was published.

Additionally, two manuscript catalogues exist, the first one covering the years 1884-1899, and the second one 1900-c.1917.

The so-called ‘Green books’ include ‘historical specimens’, numbered 1-101 and introduce a new classification based on diseases.

Printed materials (some originally from the St George's School of Nursing Library) and other reference resources, including books, published reports, syllabuses, newsletters, magazines, procedural manuals, typed lecture notes, etc.

Personal papers and memorabilia

Personal papers and memorabilia relating to former St George's nurses, some of whom were also interviewed for the Nurses' Voices oral history project (see NU/7).

The papers have been arranged approximately alphabetically by (married) name; at the end of the series, items with no name attached ('Additional material') have been grouped by document type.

Artefacts

Artefacts relating to nursing (or hospitals more generally), including clothing, badges/medals, medical equipment, and souvenirs.

For photographs of how some of these items were previously displayed in Grosvenor Wing, St George's Hospital, see the green ring binder (NU/8/6).
