Part 1: Health Care Hall of Fame Museum Proposal | Description | Analysis (How does the development affect the current U.S. health care system?) | | Smallpox was a world wide epidemic that was so major it caused the fall of some empires. The fatality rate was 60% in adults, and 80-98% in infants. (Baylor University, 2005). Edward Jennings found a solution for a smallpox vaccination in 1796. He took the lesions from a lady who had cowpox and injected it into a young boy who had smallpox. The young boy was cured of the disease within 9 days. This made Edward Jennings realize...

...Health Care Museum Tamecka Peterson HCS/235 May 17, 2014 Crystal Frankart Health Care Museum Since the early eighteen hundreds a lot has changed in health care. During this time and age women were the primary caregivers. Domestic medicine also so known as physicians treated the serious cases. As the Health Care Hall of Fame Museum curator I would integrate several exhibits that have changed health care. Midwives Midwifery has been a long standing practice for women as childbirth was something that normally took place at home. In the 15th and 16th century midwifes were thought of as “the early companions of the devil” (The Witchammer, 1487). These women had not been compliant with the Frankfurt Midwifery Code which had been established by the Catholic Church and had been in effect for over 130 years. As a consequence of this, these individuals were burned alive. Midwifery became established in the early 18th and 19th century in Europe. They were trained to be both nurses as well as midwifes. In the absence of a physician, during the first 250 years midwifes were at the front end of the birthing process. Immigrant women who had learned the trade in their country of origin had learned the trade and passed their learning’s and skills to midwife of a younger generation. Thus there were two types of midwifes that developed in the US. One was a Nurse-midwife which are trained in nursing and midwifery as well as Direct Entry Midwives which would not be nurses...

Dating back to 1896, with Anna Millard and Omaha Women’s club, organized the “VNA” to aide Miss Millard in her benevolent work (vnna,2013 ). With long history of providing care, VNA are recognized as an important community resource, as patients spend less time in the hospital and the American population continues to age.

...Health care has always been a growing industry from discovering new illnesses and new vaccines. I will create a Health Care Hall of Fame Museum. In this museum I will have five exhibits that have changed health care, which include: the discovery of germs, vaccines, surgery, childbirth, and Medicare. I will give a brief description of each exhibit and their role in health care. Germs Louis Pasteur, born in Dole, a small town in eastern France had an interest in scientific subjects. In 1847, he received his doctoral degree. Pasteur believed that if germs were the cause of fermentation they could also be the cause of contagious diseases. He began to develop the Germ Theory of Disease, and eventually, developed vaccinations. In 1881, Pasteur successfully developed and introduced to the public his anthrax vaccine. In 1855, He launched one of his most famous developments – a vaccine against rabies. Soon after the vaccines were tested and were successful, the Pasteur Institute was built in Paris to treat victims with rabies and other diseases. Vaccines Vaccines in the United States, Edward Jenner created the world’s first vaccine for smallpox. Edward Jenner, worked in a rural society most of his patients were farmers or worked on farms. In 1796 he created the world’s first vaccine for smallpox. In the 18th century smallpox as one of the most deadliest and persistent human diseases. The main treatment developed by Jan Ingenhaus, involved scratching the vein of a healthy person...

...Health Care Museum Introduction From the 1900’s to the 2000’s health care in America has changed significantly. Many people believe it has changed for the better, while some feel it may have changed for the worse. Over the years hospitals and other Healthcare facilities have become more scientific organizations. More and more, people are recognizing their need for Healthcare and the importance it plays in their lives. My Museum Hall of Fame will focus on the changes in Health Insurance and its many different policies. The depression in the 1930’s changes Healthcare with Employer-Based Health Insurance, which made health insurance much more accessible to working, middle-class Americans. By the mid 1950’s 45 percent of the population had health insurance coverage. Coverage then skyrocketed and by 1963 about 77 percent of people were covered by some form of Health Insurance. It seems Commercial-Based Insurance companies may have put an end to Employer-Based Insurance, but may have opened the door for insurance to improve and grow in other ways. Development Description Analysis (How does the development affect the current U.S. health care system?) 1. Employer-Sponsored Health Insurance During World War II the federal government controlled employer’s wages, forcing employers to search for another way to attract and hold onto workers. The labor market was suffering because of the increased need for goods and the decreased number of workers during...

This broad definition encompasses a wide variety of organizations — from those conducting medical research to those providing free legal services to low-income families to those preserving historic sites. It also includes corporations and foundations founded to support such activities. We’ve organized a quick overview of categories and kinds of activities. Arts, culture, and humanities This category probably makes you think of museums and concert halls. You’re right, but that’s not all. They belong here along with these organizations: * Organizations and activities that further enjoyment and understanding of all kinds of arts * Media and communications organizations * Groups furthering the understanding of history and genealogy * Halls of fame * Historic preservation * Organizations offering services to artists, writers, and performers * Organizations for the training and education of artists, writers, and performers Did you think of heredity-based organizations (such as Sons of the Revolution or Daughters of the Confederacy)?
