PENNSYLVANIA HOSPITAL.
ON WHICH IS ENGRAFTED BY AN ACT OF THE LEGISLATURE,
THE LYING-IN AND FOUNDLING HOSPITAL.
Physicians-Drs. Parke, Rush, Wistar, Physick, Barton and James-Annual Election 12th May.
The patients to be admitted in this Hospital, are the sick in body or mind, except with contagious diseases ; these are ad- mitted from the Hospital Dispensary, as out patients.
Forty paupers are allowed to be received at one time and no more, the funds at present not being sufficient to provide for a larger number; but the charity will be extended to the poor, in proportion to the increase of the capital stock, which can only arise from future legacies or contributions, no tax be- ing assessed on the citizens for the support of this institution.
In the mean time the affluent are received, as pay patients, from three to eight dollars a week, according to their circum- stances in life, and the profit made by their board is applied with the interest of the capital, to the support of poor patients.
Accidents, however, such as fractures, bad bruises, are ad- mitted GRATIS, if brought within twenty-four hours after they - happen, and the doors are to be opened at all hours to receive them.
In all other cases, applications should be made to one of the attending physicians and managers, whose names are publislı- ed monthly in Poulson's papers. But on the fourth and seventh day of every week, those managers and physicians attend re- gularly at the hospital from 10 to 12 o'clock in the morning, on purpose to receive and discharge patients, where if the ap- plicant applies, it will often save much trouble.
xlv
Legacies are usually given in the corporate name, viz. " I give to the Contributors to the Pennsylvania Hospital, and to their successors, &c." Contributions and donations are sent or taken to JOSEPH S. LEWIS, Treasurer,
25 Dock, between Front and Second streets.
