Interviews conducted from 1988 to 1991 with nurses, doctors, engineers, volunteers, and staff in housekeeping, nutrition services, personnel, medical diagnostic unit, etc., who had stories to contribute about the hospital's early days. The material was collected to form the basis of a book, Memories, written by then Public Relations Director Peter L. Hill, for the opening ceremony of the redeveloped Hamilton General Division of the Hamilton Civic Hospitals in 1989. The focus was less on chronology and events and more on the stories that conveyed a sense of the personal history of the organization, which trances its roots back to 1853. In 1962 the Hamilton General and the Henderson General became the Hamilton Civic Hospitals and new terminology introduced in 1988 defined the units as Divisions of the Hamilton Civic Hospitals. English. Some restrictions on access. List of interviewees. Selective transcription of 60 interviews, over 60 pages.
