ANNUAL REPORT
History of the Sturdy Memorial Hospital
By a generous clause in the will of Mrs. Ellen A. Winsor, the homestead estate of her father, the late James H. Sturdy, was bequeathed to the Town of Attleborough to be used for a general hospital, in memory of James H. and Adah S. Sturdy. In addition to this gracious act, Mrs. Winsor placed her residuary estate in a permanent fund, to be known as the Albert W. and Ellen A. Winsor Fund, to be held in trust, the income only thereof to be used to assist in the main- tenance of said hospital. The original gift of real estate known as the Sturdy Foundation, is valued at $30,000 and the personal property left by Mr. and Mrs. Winsor, known as the Winsor Foundation, is valued at $93,000.
The location for such an institution was ideal, but to prepare the property for modern hospital work required the expenditure of a larger sum of money than the Town officials felt warranted at this time in asking the citizens to appropriate. At this crisis the Attleborough Hospital, a corporation organized under Massachu- setts laws, came forward and offered to take the property in trust, reconstruct the home house, build new additions, erect in connection therewith a modern operating wing, equip the whole plant, and open the institution as a general hospital to be known as the Sturdy Memorial Hospital.
The Town of Attleborough at a special meeting held May 14, 1912, accepted the offer of the Attleborough Hospital, and in due time placed the property in question in trust with said corporation.
The work of reconstruction and new building was commenced in July, 1912, and on April 14, 1913, after an expenditure of something over $30,000, the hospital was opened.
Again in July, 1914, another addition was made, known as the Nurses' Home , with provisions also for maternity cases, thus making 30 beds as the total capacity of the hospital, being largely possible because of a gift of $10,000 from the late Fannie M. Tappan. The total cost of this addition was approximately $18,000, and the balance was provided from income from trust account and individual gifts.
In 1922 Joseph L. Sweet, President of the Attleborough Hospital since its beginning, provided for the erection of a $125,000 fireproof addition to be known as the Florence Hayward Sweet Maternity Building, and adding 21 beds to the capacity of the hospital. This addition was opened June 4, 1923, and the gift included a new plant and boiler house situated at the rear of the lot back of the present Nurses' Home, providing the steam and heating and other needs of the whole hospital.
With the realization that its facilities were being taxed to the limit and the needs of a substantial addition pressing, the Board of Managers, in the fall of 1924, voted to undertake a campaign for additional funds. With an enthusiasm on the part of the subscribers and workers unparalleled in the history of the community, this campaign was brought to a successful conclusion on February 9, 1925, with total pledges of over $392,000, the objective having been $300,000.
The Sturdy Homestead, formerly the main hospital, was relocated in the rear of the Nurses' Home, giving much needed additional accommodation for nurses, and a three story, sixty-five room, buff brick and stone, modern hospital building was erected on the site of the old hospital.
The new unit reached such a point of completion as to permit of the registra- tion of the first patient therein on July 25, 1926. On September 30th the building was thrown open for inspection by the public, and while no formal exercises were attempted, in the evening a dinner was given to the local and consulting staffs, with an especially splendid representation of the latter who were exceedingly generous in their commendation of the entire hospital plant and its equipment- highly significant, coming from professional men who have frequent contacts with the very best hospital facilities in the country.
We now have an up-to-date 125 bed hospital with a replacement value for the plant of over half a million dollars, well nigh complete in its appointments,
30
ANNUAL REPORT
with well-equipped and competently administered X-Ray, Laboratory and Physiotherapy departments.
A capable and devoted staff of physicians, superintendent and nurses, a consulting staff of physicians and surgeons of wide repute, and an interested public, largely represented through the effective help rendered by the women's organization now known as the Sturdy Memorial Hospital Aid Association, have resulted in the development of one of the finest hospitals in New England, with : standard of efficiency equivalent to that in many of the larger and well known hospitals.
REPORT OF THE BOARD OF MANAGERS
To the Honorable Mayor and Municipal Council:
January 30, 1930
As Managers of the Attleborough Hospital operating the Sturdy Memorial Hospital for the City of Attleboro, we submit our seventeenth annual report to- gether with a report of the Treasurer with auditor's certificate attached, that of the Treasurer of the Sturdy Memorial Hospital Campaign Fund, the Superinten- dent of the Hospital and the Treasurer of the Hospital Aid Association.
Despite an increase in medical and ward cases, the hospital cared for 22 less patients in 1929 as compared with 1928. The decrease is attribut ble to less obstetrical and automobile accident cases, largely from cities and towns outside what we may call our district which comprises most of the Massachusetts com- munities within a ten-mile radius. We continue to serve a very considerable number outside our own city limits, 678 out of a total of 1520 patients, having come from beyond our borders with a notable increase from Norton, Rehoboth and Seekonk.
Both receipts and expenses were slightly larger than the year preceding and our actual deficit was $1,531.81, a figure less than the 1928 deficit, but the 1929 deficit would have been $2,000.00 more if an extra dividend of $2,000.00 had not been received on one of our investments. Our normal deficit, as the hospital is operated at present, and as shown by the figures for the past three years is about $3,500.00. A comparison with figures from other hospitals indicates that this deficit of ours is comparatively small-furthermore other municipalities make more substantial appropriations for hospital maintenance even where the institutions are not municipally owned as is ours. A notable instance near at hand, is the annual payment to the Sayles Memorial Hospital by the cities of Pawtucket and Central Falls of more than $30,000.00.
The City of Attleboro has been paying for the insurance and water required by its own hospital and the cost of these items last year was $1,885.69. We now ask your favorable consideration of an additional appropriation of $3,000.00 for the year 1930 and that it may be applied to some specific purpose in keeping with our municipal auditing methods, we suggest that this be termed an appropriation for the purchase of fuel which in 1929 cost $3,263.86, our annual requirements being approximately 500 tons.
During the year, largely through the active efforts of Mr. and Mrs. Fred L Wetherell, we secured a pleasing increase in our life and annual memberships and we are confident that we shall receive further welcome additions to this list during the coming year.
It is especially gratifying that our equipment and the character of the service rendered by our consulting and local staff, superintendents and nurses continues to merit our rating as a Class. A Hospital, which means that Sturdy Hospital is
31

fully approved by the American College of Surgeons and conforms with the basic requirements which insure the best care of the patient.
This report would not be complete without grateful acknowledgment of the labor and financial assistance so effectively provided by the Hospital Aid Associ- ation.

A very excellent Portable X-Ray unit was donated to this Department by Mr. J. L. Sweet. This very efficiently takes care of the work to be done on patients who are unable to be moved from their beds to the X-Ray Room.
I am exclosing a price-list of X-Ray rates charged to all patients. I would ask the consideration of the Board of Managers toward having these rates reduced for Ward Patients-these patients seem to find it impossible to pay the present rates.
REPORT OF THE TRAINING-SCHOOL
During the year 1929 nineteen pupils were admitted to the Training-School; four of these gave up being unable to do the work satisfactorily.
Twelve graduated in the last class. I very fortunately secured another affiliation with the Taunton State Hospital in order to give the nurses more medical work during their training.
We now affiliate with the Children's Hospital, Portland, Maine, The Butler Hospital, Providence, R. I. and the Taunton State Hospital Taunton, Mass., keeping two girls each of these places for three months all through the year.
There are several rooms in the Maternity Building and Nurses' Home that need some painting done, also the Sterilizing Room in the main Hospital. I
would ask the Board of Managers to inspect these at their convenience.
The Ladies Aid have done a great deal of good work for us during the year. A very efficient Electric Polishing machine was donated by them and this is a wonderful help in keeping the floors in good condition.
