Thirty-eighth annual report, 1938 [electronic resource] / Lincoln Hospital.
The 38th annual report provides an extensive update on the progress and achievements of the hospital since its establishment in 1901, to serve the African American community in Durham N.C. Accomplishments include successful training programs for nurses, doctors, residents, and community members, expansion and improvements to hospital facilities, and a record of never turning a needy patient away, regardless of ability to pay. Gratitude to the individuals and institutions responsible for supporting and financing the hospital's work is expressed throughout the report, as is the biracial nature of the staffing and administration of the hospital. The report is divided into sections including lists of committees, members and staff, brief history of the hospital, hospital services and patient care, training programs, funding, and needs. Letters of praise and congratulations from prominent individuals, organizations, and government offices conclude the report.
