title: The development of nurse training in the Birmingham Teaching Hospitals, 1869-1957.
abstract: This paper is based upon research undertaken in the Birmingham City Archives in which the development of nurse training and education is traced from its beginnings in 1869 to the creation of a central school for the Teaching Hospitals in 1957. The results from this research are discussed in the context of national developments in training and as such developments in Birmingham can be seen as typical of many towns and cities in provincial England, during the period under study.
