Certificate - St. John Ambulance Certificate
The St. John Ambulance Association has been providing first aid and medical training since the 19th century. Given the date of 1915, this certificate was likely issued during World War I, a period when first aid and nursing training were crucial due to wartime medical needs. Such certificates were important for individuals who served in hospitals, community health programs, or military medical support roles.This is a framed certificate from the St. John Ambulance Association, encased in a rectangular wooden frame with a simple, dark brown finish. The glass within the frame protects the certificate, which appears to be slightly wrinkled, possibly due to age and exposure to moisture. The document is printed on paper with a decorative border, official insignia, and handwritten inscriptions.The certificate is issued by the St. John Ambulance Association, Victoria Centre, and is dated 1915. It is awarded to an individual for completing a course in Nursing and Hygiene at a specific Sub-Centre and successfully passing an examination. The document features official signatures, seals, and the St. John Ambulance insignia (a Maltese cross), printed in black and red ink. The text includes phrases such as "This is to Certify", followed by the recipient's name and details of their achievement - Martha DUNCANst johns ambulance, first aid, medical items, martha duncan -

Functional object - water bottle
This water bottle was carried by stretcher bearers in the Light Horse Field Ambulance. The cup/cap was used to give a drink to a wounded soldier who could not hold a water bottle to his lips. A light horse field ambulance was an Australian World War I military unit whose purpose was to provide medical transport and aid to the wounded and sick soldiers of an Australian Light Horse brigade. Typically a Lieutenant Colonel commanded each ambulance. All officers of the ambulance were medical doctors or surgeons. Dental units were often attached to the ambulance as well. A Field Ambulance consisted of two sections, the Mobile and the Immobile. The Mobile Section travel with its brigade into combat, where it would establish a Dressing Station. It use stretchers or carts to retrieve the wounded and transport them to the Dressing Station. The Immobile Section established and operated a Receiving Station, which received the wounded the Dressing Station sent on. The ambulance's surgeons would operate on the wounded at the Receiving Station. From the Receiving Station, the sick and wounded would go first to the Casualty Clearing Station and ultimately to a Base Hospital.

Book - First Aid to the Injured - The St John Ambulance association, 1942
The St John Ambulance Association, which was founded in 1877 in England. Its first uniformed first-aiders were founded in 1887 as the St John Ambulance Brigade. These two have since been merged into a single association. St John Ambulance now have over 40 national organisations, many of which are affiliated with Johanniter International, and over 300,000 volunteers worldwide. The Order of St John owns the brand name in most countries (with the notable exception of India, which has a St John Ambulance organisation that is unconnected to the international movement). Logos vary in different countries but always contain the eight-pointed white Maltese cross as the essential identifier. Like the Order, St John Ambulance associations accept members of all religions. Their geographic organisation differs from the Order, and they have to contend with the differing national laws, medical practices and cultures of countries. As a result, the role and organisation of St John Ambulance varies by country.Joan Filbey Collection: Book First Aid to the Injured - The St John Ambulance association.
