- catalog abstract "Records in the Infirmary Archives document the patient care, administrative, teaching, and medical research activities of the Infirmary. Patient care, which has changed over the years from mostly out-patient care to mostly in-patient care and back again to mostly out-patient care, is reflected in medical records, patient registers from various departments, and administrative records. As medical procedures have changed significantly in the 20th century, so have hospital administrative practices. The advent of Medicaid and Medicare, for example, has altered the way in which hospitals are managed. These changes are illustrated in the correspondence and subject files of administrators, such as Charles T. Wood, who was director from 1966 to 1982. The Infirmary is the primary Harvard Medical School teaching hospital for ophthalmology and otolaryngology. Medical education is documented in the papers of Infirmary physicians holding joint appointments, and in the records of the specialty nursing education program, which began at the Infirmary in 1896. Records of the Infirmary's social service (established in 1907), as well as those of various medical research and clinical laboratories are also included. The Infirmary Archives contains related collections of audio-visual materials, scientific instruments and equipment, and papers of physicians, and organizations affiliated with the Infirmary: for example, the archives of the Foundation for Vision and the New England Ophthalmological Society, and the papers of Hasket Derby, David Donaldson, Lucien Howe, and Frederick Verhoeff. For further information see records entered under the name of the individual or corporate body.".
