1 Grand Rapids History & Special Collections Archives GRAND RAPIDS PUBLIC LIBRARY Finding Aid for the Mercy Central School of Nursing Records Collection # 098 September 2009 version

2 Abstract Mercy Central School of Nursing Records Collection # 98 The Mercy Central School of Nursing Records document the history and activities of MCSN from its founding as the St. Mary's Hospital Training School of Nursing in 1898 through the time of its last graduating class in The early schools were located in Bay City, Muskegon and Grand Rapids, with the main office in Grand Rapids. These were combined in Grand Rapids under the new Mercy Central name in The bulk of the collection deals with the Grand Rapids school. Included are records documenting the faculty, administration and student life. Of particular interest is the series on Curriculum, which was an important and ongoing process to keep the school up-to-date academically, and to meet accreditation standards. That series also gives an excellent insight into the trends in nursing training over a span of several decades. Included in the collection are yearbooks, student handbooks, scrapbooks, composite display boards including individual photos, annual reports and other publications, and accreditation information. Some student records are included in this collection, with restricted access. See the Archivist for permission to use these records. Note: Contact Aquinas College for later official student records.

5 History Mercy Central School of Nursing Records Collection # 98 The Sisters of Mercy organization was founded in Dublin, Ireland in 1831, by Catherine McAuley. A group of Sisters came to the United States under the direction of Sister Mary Joseph Lynch. In 1873 another group of Sisters came to Grand Rapids to teach at St. Andrews school. In 1879 Mother Mary Joseph Lynch, who worked in the Crimean War with Florence Nightingale, brought her group of Sisters to Big Rapids, Michigan. Mercy Hospital was started for the lumbermen and their families. Four Sisters, Mary Bertrand, Mary Baptist, Mary Anthony, and Sister Ignatius came from Big Rapids to start St. Mary's Hospital in St. Mary's Hospital Training School of Nursing opened on June 7, 1898, under the guidance of Sister Mary Josephine Reck. In the early days of the school, an applicant could start the course during any month, but the preferred time was during May or September. The age requirement was flexible, young women between the ages of 20 and 30 years were eligible. A certificate of health from a respectable physician and character references were also required for entrance. A high school education was desired, but not required, since an eighth grade education was acceptable. The probationary period was six months. If the student demonstrated acceptable skills and attributes deemed essential in a nurse after that time, she was awarded the cap and was assigned the responsibilities of nursing care. The students worked twelve-hour days with one hour off on weekdays and two hours off on Sunday. Mercy Central School of Nursing was organized in 1935 through the amalgamation of the schools of nursing of Mercy Hospital in Muskegon, Bay City, and [St. Mary s Hospital] in Grand Rapids. By combining the three schools, finances were increased, clinical facilities were enlarged, and created a better program for nurses training. A traditional three year diploma program continued until September At this time a revised curriculum was introduced. A great deal of time and effort was put forth by the faculty to review the old program. It was concluded that with improved methods of teaching, and better correlation of subject matter and practice nursing, a student could be prepared in a shorter period of time. The revised curriculum consisted of 27 months and at which time a student was eligible to write the state boards. Curriculum changes were an on-going procedure from this point, to ensure the very best possible education for the student. In 1965 Mercy Hospital, Bay City, withdrew from the amalgamation and in 1975, Mercy Hospital, Muskegon, also withdrew. Mercy Central School of Nursing was approved by the Michigan Board of Nursing in 1935 and since 1942 was also accredited by the Accrediting Service of the National League of Nursing. Mercy Central school of Nursing graduated its last class May 9, The nursing profession had reached a point where a four-year Baccalaureate program was recommended over the 21-month diploma program then being offered by MCSN. 5

6 Scope and Content Mercy Central School of Nursing Records Collection # 98 The collection consists of records, minutes, reports, meetings, statistics, policies that document the different aspects of MCSN from The material gives an excellent view of how nurses training has developed over several decades.

Other things of interest in the collection is the series on Student Life, which contains student handbooks, publications, scrapbooks, yearbooks which add insight into student life at the school.
