Title: Looking for anyone that worked at childrens orthopaedic marple 1949-1951
Post by: vaughan on May 13, 2008, 08:30:14 PM

I was at the hospital between the years 1949 to late 1951 student nurse.
My name then was Dinah Vaughan I would particularly like to get in touch with (pip)her full name Pauline Ivy Parker, we left the hospital at the same time.
I do know Pauline went to train at the Bournemouth and Boscam General hospital
        Can anyone help

I was in the hospital, 1954/1955. Do you remember Sister Gordan, Sister Howie and Sister Taylor and the Matron? What were your experiences, what do you remember about the hospital. I would be most interested to hear from you. I had TB spine and was on aframe. Best wishes Liz

Liz, I know you keep popping back so thought I should mention that I've just added a few photos from the period you are interested in to the Virtual Tour, see:

Thanks for all your help Mark. It was really good to see the pics of the Childrens Hospital. It is helping me to lay a few ghosts. I would still like to hear from anybody who had connections.
