Legacy history of nursing education at the University of British Columbia, 1919-1994


Title Cover Image: Legacy

In February 1919 Dr. M.T. McEachern, VGH administrator, and Dr. McKechnie, UBC Chancellor, wrote the UBC Senate to request the establishment of a nursing department at UBC. In October a Department of Nursing was established within the Faculty of Applied Science, making UBC the first university in the British Empire to offer a degree course in nursing. Ethel Johns received a joint appointment as Superintendent of Nurses at VGH and the first Director of the Department of Nursing at UBC, where she implemented a strong, science-based liberal education.
