Nursing became professionalized in the late 19th century, opening a new middle-class career for talented young women of all social backgrounds. The Harper Hospital School of Nursing, begun in 1884, was a national leader. Its graduates worked at the hospital and also in institutions, public health services, as private duty nurses, and volunteered for duty at military hospitals during the Spanish–American War and the two world wars.[2]

World War I

American Base Hospital No. 17 was organized at Harper Hospital in September 1916. It provided services in Dijon, Department Cote D'or, France. It was demobilized at Camp Custer in Michigan on May 9, 1919. McLaughlin Hall of the Farrand Training School was built in 1922 to honor the nurses associated with the war-time hospital.[3]

First successful open heart surgery

[edit]

Harper was the site of the world's first successful open-heart operation, using a mechanical heart called the Dodrill-GMR developed by a General Motors engineer with Harper physicians, including Forest Dewey Dodrill. The mechanical blood-pumping machine allowed a human heart to be temporarily stopped and operated on while the machine maintained blood circulation in the patient's body. The successful first surgery occurred on 3 July 1952.[4]

Recent
