Woking's World War Ii Hospitals
WOKING’S WORLD WAR II HOSPITALS Iain Wakeford 2017 s in the Great War, the Second World The Southern Railwayman’s Orphanage in Oriental Road was taken over as the part of the ‘Woking War Hospital’. War also saw a number of local After the war the Home took over the ‘Wynberg’ War Hospital (the house with a corner turret, above) across the road A hospitals converted (in part) into as extra accommodation. ‘emergency war hospitals’, such as Brookwood Asylum, the Woking Victoria Hospital and the Woking Maternity Home (Wynberg) – but other local institutions and private residences also played their part such as the Southern Railwaymen’s Home in Oriental Road. The Southern Railway Magazine from May 1940 noted the many meetings between the Board of Managers of the Railwayman’s Home, the Office of Works and the Ministry of Health regarding the take-over of the orphanage. They proudly pointed out the ‘complimentary remarks which have been made as to the high standard of maintenance and hygiene to be found in the Home’ as well as favourable comments regarding the children’s library. The children had already been evacuated to places such as Basingstoke and Guildford, although how much safer they were there as opposed to Woking is perhaps debatable. Another local institution which catered for a number of war wounded was the St Nicholas and St Martin’s Homes at Pyrford run by the Church of England Waifs and Strays Society. Their expertise at dealing with children with various disabilities proved vital in the treatment of servicemen who suffered similar injuries during the war. -

The Story of Nursing in British Mental Hospitals
Downloaded by [New York University] at 12:59 29 November 2016 The Story of Nursing in British Mental Hospitals From their beginnings as the asylum attendants of the nineteenth century, mental health nurses have come a long way. This is the first comprehensive history of mental health nursing in Britain in over twenty years, and during this period the landscape has transformed as the large institutions have been replaced by services in the community. McCrae and Nolan examine how the role of mental health nursing has evolved in a social and professional context, brought to life by an abundance of anecdotal accounts. The nine chronologically ordered chapters follow the development from untrained attendants in the pauper lunatic asylums to the professionally qualified nurses of the twentieth century, and, finally, consider the rundown and closure of the mental hospitals from nurses’ perspectives. Throughout, the argument is made that while the training, organisation and environment of mental health nursing has changed, the aim has remained essentially the same: to nurture a therapeutic relationship with people in distress. McCrae and Nolan look forward as well as back, and highlight significant messages for the future of mental health care. For mental health nursing to be meaningfully directed, we must first understand the place from which this field has developed. This scholarly but accessible book is aimed at anyone with an interest in mental health or social history, and will also act as a useful resource for policy- makers, managers and mental health workers. Niall McCrae is a lecturer in mental health nursing at Florence Nightingale Faculty of Nursing & Midwifery, King’s College London. -
