  • 'Women in Medicine & Scottish Women's Hospitals'
    WWI: Women in Medicine KS3 / LESSONS 1-5 WORKSHEETS IN ASSOCIATION WITH LESSON 2: WORKSHEET Elsie Ingis 1864 – 1917 Elsie Inglis was born in 1864, in the small Indian town of Naini Tal, before moving back to Scotland with her parents. At the time of her birth, women were not considered equal to men; many parents hoped to have a son rather than a daughter. But Elsie was lucky – her mother and father valued her future and education as much as any boy’s. After studying in Paris and Edinburgh, she went on to study medicine and become a qualified surgeon. Whilst working at hospitals in Scotland, Elsie was shocked to discover how poor the care provided to poorer female patients was. She knew this was not right, so set up a tiny hospital in Edinburgh just for women, often not accepting payment. Disgusted by what she had seen, Elsie joined the women’s suffrage campaign in 1900, and campaigned for women’s rights all across Scotland, with some success. In August 1914, the suffrage campaign was suspended, with all efforts redirected towards war. But the prejudices of Edwardian Britain were hard to break. When Elsie offered to take an all-female medical unit to the front in 1914, the War Office told her: “My good lady, go home and sit still.” But Elsie refused to sit still. She offered help to France, Belgium and Serbia instead – and in November 1914 dispatched the first of 14 all-women medical units to Serbia, to assist the war effort. Her Scottish Women’s Hospitals went on to recruit more than 1,500 women – and 20 men – to treat thousands in France, Serbia, Corsica, Salonika, Romania, Russia and Malta.

They sought to extend women’s rights in parliamentary enfranchisement of women in 1918. In many ways, through a variety of organisations and Scotland this meant ‘women 30 years or over who were campaigns, often inter-related and with overlapping themselves, or their husbands, occupiers as owners or memberships. Of particular importance were the tenants of lands or premises in their constituency in forms of franchise to which women were admitted which they claimed the vote’.2 A woman could also prior to 1918, and the ways in which women be registered if her husband was a local government responded to opportunities to vote and to seek public elector; the local government franchise in Scotland office at local level. This local activity should be was more stringent than the first criterion, and this franchise was therefore more restrictive than that seen, however, in the wider context of a suffrage which applied in England and Wales.

We are establishing the only national program in intestinal failure and intestinal transplant services [Professor Hardikar and Professor Bines]. Many in the department are leaders in the fields of transplant medicine, inflammatory bowel disease and pancreatic disorders. A full array of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures are performed on site and this also includes a state of the art diagnostic laboratory for motility studies. The Department of Gastroenterology and Clinical Nutrition has a rich history with “Rotavirus” being discovered by Professor Ruth Bishop at the Royal Children’s Hospital. The work of Professor Graeme Barnes and Dr Rudge Townley should be acknowledged in the build up to this important discovery. In addition to this the work of Professor Charlotte Anderson should be highlighted as she provided substantial insights into cystic fibrosis and coeliac disease. The Training Program Aims of the Program 1) To provide a framework of knowledge in the basic sciences and clinical practice of gastroenterology, hepatology and clinical nutrition. 2) To provide experience in gastroenterological procedures commonly used in clinical practice (endoscopy, percutaneous endoscopically placed gastrostomy, oesophageal pH monitoring, gastrointestinal motility and breath testing). 3) To encourage and facilitate research within the fields of luminal gastroenterology, hepatology, transplantation (intestinal and liver) and nutrition. 4) To help provide an education for each trainee which is appropriate for their future practice. The purpose of the 12 month positions is to provide training for physicians wishing to specialise in paediatric gastroenterology.

    U3A AUSTRALIAN HISTORY. Dr. AGNES LLOYD BENNETT. 1872-1960. [Editor: When “this story first arrived at my ‘inbox’ I felt that some of the expressions in it were “needing adjustment”, being perhaps not “correct” for our times. I began an editing process, but realized that the actual forms of language used in the story reflect the language of the time and probably of the author in former times. I abandoned the edit and give you the original text. Enjoy both the story and the John’s writing of it.] Agnes Lloyd Bennett was born at Neutral Bay in Sydney on 24 June 1872. She was educated at Abbotsleigh and Sydney Girls High Schools. She won a scholarship and went to Sydney University and wanted to study Medicine but was told that women could not become Doctors so she studied Science and graduated with Honours. She found that she would be welcome to study Medicine at Edinburgh University so she set sail for Scotland. In 1899 she graduated with Honours She now returned to Australia to find that Hospitals would not allow women to be Doctors there. She opened a practice in Darlinghurst but there was much prejudice against a female Doctor and she was forced to close the practice. She was accepted by women but some men would not allow their wives and daughters to see a woman Doctor. The only place that she was accepted was at Callan Park Hospital for the Insane. 1 In 1905 she went to New Zealand and was offered a position at Wellington, She was soon the Chief Medical Officer at St.

  • “A Veritable Augustus”: the Life of John Winthrop Hackett, Newspaper
    “A Veritable Augustus”: The Life of John Winthrop Hackett, Newspaper Proprietor, Politician and Philanthropist (1848-1916) by Alexander Collins B.A., Grad.Dip.Loc.Hist., MSc. Presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Murdoch University March 2007 I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work which has not been previously submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. ……………………….. Alexander Collins ABSTRACT Irish-born Sir John Winthrop Hackett was a man of restless energy who achieved substantial political authority and social standing by means of the power gained through his editorship and part-ownership of the West Australian newspaper and his position in parliament. He was a man with a mission who intended to be a successful businessman, sought to provide a range of cultural facilities and, finally, was the moving force in establishing a tertiary educational institution for the people of Western Australia. This thesis will argue that whatever Hackett attempted to achieve in Western Australia, his philosophy can be attributed to his Irish Protestant background including his student days at Trinity College Dublin. After arriving in Australia in 1875 and teaching at Trinity College Melbourne until 1882, his ambitions took him to Western Australia where he aspired to be accepted and recognised by the local establishment. He was determined that his achievements would not only be acknowledged by his contemporaries, but also just as importantly be remembered in posterity. After a failed attempt to run a sheep station, he found success as part-owner and editor of the West Australian newspaper.
