EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled 'Cousin Kay,' transports us back in time to a hospital ward at St. Stephen's Hospital in London during the 1920s. The image captures a moment in the daily life of a dedicated team of nursing students and ward staff, led by a stern yet caring ward sister at the back. The male patients, dressed in nightgowns and robes, appear to be in good spirits, engaging in various activities, such as reading or playing cards, under the watchful eyes of their young caregivers. Nurse Kathleen Drage, the eponymous 'Cousin Kay,' is among the nursing students in the photograph. She underwent her general nursing training at St. Stephen's Hospital between 1924 and 1927. The hospital, known for its commitment to providing high-quality medical care and treatment, played a significant role in shaping the careers of countless healthcare professionals during this era. The ward itself is tastefully decorated, with soft, muted colors and an air of calmness and order. The presence of potted plants, artwork, and personal items adds to the homely atmosphere, making the environment more conducive to the patients' wellbeing. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the early days of the National Health Service (NHS) in the UK, which began providing free healthcare to all citizens in 1948. The dedication and compassion of nursing students like Kathleen Drage, who were instrumental in the delivery of medical care during the 1920s, laid the foundation for the exceptional healthcare services we enjoy today.
