Nursing School History - Page 2
 
For those of you who sat through my classes in History of Nursing, relax!  I am only reflecting on the years from 1908 - 1988, when St. Joseph's Hospital had a School of Nursing.
Seated: Miss Josephine Tyrasinski, Miss Lena MacInerney, Miss Catherine Sullivan, and (standing) Miss Harriett Keavin.
 
The first student was accepted on Oct. 2, 1908.  She was Lena MacInerney of Elmira.  Soon, three others joined her to form the first class that eventually graduated in 1911.
