  • Deeds and Words in the Suffrage Military Hospital in Endell Street
    Medical History, 2007, 51: 79–98 Deeds and Words in the Suffrage Military Hospital in Endell Street JENNIAN F GEDDES* Introduction Shortly after war broke out in 1914 Dr Flora Murray and Dr Louisa Garrett Anderson, two former members of the Women’s Social and Political Union, founded their own women’s hospital organization to care for soldiers wounded in the fighting. Experience in the suffrage movement had taught them what the likely reaction of the authorities would be to any offer of help from women doctors, so they applied directly to the French, who accepted their offer and assigned them a newly built hotel in Paris for their hospital. During the autumn and early winter of 1914 Murray and Anderson’s ‘‘Women’s Hospital Corps’’ successfully ran two military hospitals, in Paris and at Wimereux on the Channel coast, until January 1915, when casualties began to be evacuated to England in preference to being treated in France. In the interim, the War Office had received many favourable reports of the WHC’s achievements, with the result that at the beginning of 1915 the women were invited to return to England, and given the opportunity to run a large military hospital in the centre of London, under the Royal Army Medical Corps. This hospital, the Endell Street Military Hospital, was open from May 1915 to the end of 1919. Entirely staffed by women, and the only women’s unit run by militant suffragists, it was one of the most remarkable hospitals of the war.1 By any standards, the achievements of the WHC were astonishing.

In the case of Australia this was effected by frequent communication of a personal nature between the Australian D.G. and myself. The former was then engaged in organising the Medical Service of Australia, and in all essential particulars it developed on lines similar to that of Great Britain. The connection with Canada was closer for we were able to secure that selected officers from that portion of the Dominions came to us for instructioii in Administration, and were given opportunities of seeing the organisation and its constituent parts from Hospitals up to the W.O. branches. The result was a development in Canada along lines similar to our own. The service in New Zealand was a new formation, but the attitude of the Authorities has been sufficiently dis- played by their demand that their Director of M.S.

  • Medical Women at War, 1914-1918
    Medical History, 1994, 38: 160-177. MEDICAL WOMEN AT WAR, 1914-1918 by LEAH LENEMAN * Women had a long and difficult struggle before they were allowed to obtain a medical education.' Even in 1914 the Royal Free was the only London teaching hospital to admit them and some universities (including Oxford and Cambridge) still held out against them. The cost of a medical education continued to be a major obstacle, but at least there were enough schools by then to ensure that British women who wanted and could afford one could get it. The difficulty was in finding residency posts after qualifying, in order to make a career in hospital medicine. Few posts were available outside the handful of all-women hospitals, and medical women were channelled away from the more prestigious specialities-notably general surgery-into those less highly regarded, like gynaecology and obstetrics, and into asylums, dispensaries, public health, and, of course, general practice.2 When war broke out in August 1914, the Association of Registered Medical Women expected that women doctors would be needed mostly for civilian work, realizing that "as a result of the departure of so many medical men to the front there will be vacancies at home which medical women may usefully fill".3 As early as February 1915 it was estimated that a sixth of all the medical men in Scotland had taken commissions in the RAMC. In April of that year it was reported that "there is hardly a resident post not open to a qualified woman if she cares to apply for it".
