The British Women's Hospital in Paris (Hôtel Claridge)

Endell Street Military Hospital

An all woman staff at a British Hospital in Paris: splendid treatment for the wounded soldiers.
Text and photos taken from an original copy of The Daily Mirror dated Thursday October 22, 1914

Admirable work is being done at the British Women's Hospital in Paris. The whole staff is composed of members of the gentler sex and the chief surgeon is Dr Louisa Garrett-Anderson, whose mother (Elizabeth Garrett Anderson) will be remembered as one of the pioneers among women in the field of medicine. The institution is fitted with every appliance and many a British "Tommy" wounded by German bullets or shrapnel is deeply grateful for the treatment he has received in the hands of these skillful doctors. The hospital is the converted Hôtel Claridge but dining room, smoking rooms and lounges have all gone now. They are being mad to serve a more useful purpose.
