This Notice To Parents was sent by the Deputy Registrar of Births and Deaths in District of East Brighton , now known as Bentleigh. The notice states that all Public Vaccinators ‘ are supplied with Calf lymph. Parents can chose which Lymph they prefer”James Jones and Mary Ann Moore were born in Brighton c1857 and c 1859 into pioneer market gardener families in the area of the Dendy Special Survey of 1841. They married in 1883 and raised their family in East Brighton, now Bentleigh. Sadly infectious diseases took the lives of many infants throughout the Colony of Victoria due to the poor state of water supply and sewerage disposal and locally the swamps of the Elster Creek were a constant breeding ground.

Hewitt’s airway was the first known oral airway and laid the foundations for the numerous other airways that were later developed. The development of the oropharyngeal airway is one of the lesser-acknowledged advances in anaesthesia. Oral airways made anaesthesia safer and significantly reduced the trauma associated with earlier attempts at managing the obstructed airway. The Hewitt Airway – the first known artificial oral ‘air-way’. In 1890, Frederic Hewitt noted the frequency and danger of upper airway obstruction. In 1908, dissatisfied with the use of tongue forceps and that Esmarch’s maneuver sometimes failed, he described the first oropharyngeal airway, the Hewitt Airway. The tube was less than 8 cm long, ideally connecting the oral opening to the hypopharynx. The Hewitt Airway was the foundation for many subsequent oropharyngeal airway designs.The oropharyngeal airway is significant because of its lesser acknowledged advances in anaesthesia.Round metal tube with a brown rubber tubing sleeve around the outside.medical health, anaesthesia

In the early stages of the Kiewa Hydro-Electric Scheme the State Electricity Commission took over the financial and construction responsibility of the Tawonga District General Hospital building at a cost of 27,000 pounds. This included the removal and re-erection of the ex-military Bonegilla ward from Wodonga while in addition they carried out all the necessary building works that allowed the hospital to operate as a functional unit. The work was completed and handed over to the Hospital Committee of Management on September 1, 1949. Local residents raised 3,400 pounds through fund raising. The balance was met by the SEC and the Hospital and Charities Commission. The initial project was to provide for a basic temporary hospital which was later to include an Operating Theatre, Offices, Store, Mortuary and a Nurse’s Home, until the establishment of a permanent medical premises. Following the opening, 455 patients were admitted to the Tawonga District General Hospital and 254 operations were performed in the first year. The hospital relocated to Mount Beauty in the former SEC administration offices located in the town centre. Official opening of the 18 bed Tawonga District General Hospital on April 29 in 1961. Alpine Health CEO Mr Lyndon Seys oversaw the opening of the new Mount Beauty Hospital in November 2001 alongside Board of Management President Mr Andrew Randell, other board members and politicians. The Kiewa Hydro-Electric Scheme the State Electricity Commission played a pivotal part in the planning and initial funding of the Tawonga District General Hospital, with a view to providing medical support for its many workers on the Hydro scheme. Later, spouse and family members of workers were also able to access medical assistance The hospital was originally located in Tawonga away from the majority of the patients as the Hospital and Charities Board was not prepared to have it within the SEC controlled area. It was not until the gate at Tawonga South was taken down that the hospital was moved to the main centre of population at Mount Beauty. 1. Early nurses uniform; 2. Hospital Opening Ceremony; 3-7.

This kit most likely originates from the late 1950s. The enclosed St Johns Ambulance first aid guide was published in 1955 (the 8th impression of the 40th Edition). It belonged to Doug Twaits , presumably first when he lived in Kew; while a residence in Kew is not recorded in biographical information about him, this too would most likely have occurred in the late 1950s after he returned from Papua New Guinea and before he lived in Essendon. Twaits had previously lived in Emerald, and would return later in life. The first aid book was not originally included in the kit and may not be contemporaneous with the box it is now stored in. However, based on the items stored within the kit it is unlikely to originate from much later, and it most likely did originate at a similar time to the enclosed book. In particular, Dex Powder was banned in the 1970s due to health risks, placing a hard limit on how late it could be from.This kit represents the state of home healthcare in the mid-20th century.The metal box is a rectangular prism in two equal halves, one painted blue and the other red. The blue side - the front - features a cross and text announcing it as a home first aid kit. On the left are two hinges connecting the two parts; on the right is a metal clasp closing the box. A carrying handle is attached to the top of the box, on the red rear section. The box still contains many elements of the first aid kit itself: - Three first aid guidebooks (a 283-page textbook published by St Johns Ambulance Association, a 27-page booklet published by Smith & Nephew, and a 15-page booklet published by Savlon) - Tubes of "strangulator tubing," cotton wool, boracic (boric) acid, sodium bicarbonate, and salt tablets - Vials of Sal Volatile (smelling salts), Acriflavine antiseptic, calamine lotion, castor oil, and benzethonium chloride germicide. - Five sachets of Bex Powder (a mix of caffeine, aspirin, and phenacetin) - A cardboard box containing a squeeze tube of 'Portex Medicated Plastic Skin' (likely a combination painkiller and liquid bandage) - A carboard box containing an eye dropper - Several bandages - A eye dust remover - A plastic cupBox: "Home Safety / FIRST AID KIT" Black Book: "FIRST AID / TO THE INJURED / THE ST.

Bayer began conducting operations in Australia in 1925. This bottle does not have an exact date of production but it is consistent with bottles produced in Sydney in the late 1940s. The item has historical significance as it is a demonstration of a common household medicine during the 1940s. This in combination with items from other years and geographic areas can demonstrate the evolution of household medicine. A small oval transparent glass bottle with a metal twist cap lid. The Metal lid has the Bayer Company logo on the top (BAYER written vertically intersecting with BAYER written horizontally). There is a primarily dirty yellow front label with primarily brownish grey writing with some write writing that reads "BAYER'S ASPIRIN." The word "Genuine" is located just below the white writing in faded red joint-handwriting font. The final letter of "Genuine" loops up into an arrow pointing towards the previous line's text. The back label is the same dirty yellow as the front, with Brownish-Grey text. It has the Bayer Company logo at the top (BAYER written vertically intersecting with BAYER written horizontally), followed by dosage information and two columns of suggested aliments to consume the original contexts. The bottom has a symbol that is presumably the glass bottle manufacturer. The bottle contains some powder residue of unknown origin.

Sigma Co. Ltd. (now known as Sigma Healthcare) was founded in 1912 by Melbourne Pharmacists Edwin Church and Ernest Leete and has since grown to become one of Australia's leading pharmaceutical retailers. Initially driven by the high prices of wholesale drugs and medicines, Church and Leete established Sigma as a manufacturer of medicinal products which could be sold only to paying subscribers. In 1913, it was decided that Sigma would open its markets to non-member pharmacies and retailers, although WWI caused production to falter. Over the following decade, the company grew, resulting in a restructuring in 1927 and the acquisition of small chemist manufacturing firm, Tromax Co. Ltd., who were struggling financially. For centuries, camphor has been used a folk medicine, likely used as a decongestant as well as a treatment for sprains and inflammation. In the 1900s, camphor was used as an analeptic by injection and was also used to induce seizures in schizophrenic patients in an attempt to cure psychosis. Camphorated oil, as was once present in this bottle, was composed of 20% camphor in cottonseed oil. It was rubbed into the skin as a topical medicine to treat itching from minor skin irritation. In 1947, a competitor's 1 oz. bottle of Camphorated oil was sold at a maximum of 8 dimes. The makers mark indicates that this bottle was manufactured in 1935 by Australian Glass Manufacturers (AGM).This item is an excellent example of a popular household medication used for common ailments such as itching and skin irritation. It was sold for use over a wide area of Melbourne and beyond, aiding inhabitants of the local area.This item is a truncated triangular glass bottle with a rusted metal lid attached. A primarily yellow label with red and blue details wraps around the front three faces of the bottle, displaying use instructions and warnings. On the rear of the bottle are two grids containing thirty crosses each and embossed text. There is also embossed text on the base. Inside the bottle, some liquid and solid residue remains.

The Mountain District Community Health Service (MDCHS) was conceived of by Cockatoo local Myrtle Quicke, a well-renowned medical professional and nurse in the early-mid 1900s, as well as a founder of the Australian College of Nursing. After moving to Cockatoo in 1954, she quickly realised the shortage of adequate medical care in the area and organised the establishment of the MDCHS. This involved fundraisers and meetings with both locals and council officials to drum up funding and support against opposition who believed there was no need for such a centre. For many years, money was raised for the MDCHS by an opportunity shop nearby until the centre opened on the 3rd of March, 1964. It operated on a membership service, costing £1/5 a year for a single man or woman with no dependents, and a nurse was in attendance 24-hours a day. Alongside the development of the MDCHS, the Berwick Shire council (now part of Cardinia Shire) decided to assign an Infant Welfare Nurse to Cockatoo in order to assist with an influx of new babies in the area. An Infant Welfare Centre was attached to the MDCHS, and opened at the same time. Myrtle joked that she would have the Queen open the building, but it was instead opened by the Governor of Victoria, Sir Rohan Delacombe. The day was one of great celebration for all in the town.This photograph documents the growth of local healthcare and medicine, as well as one of the many accomplishments of Myrtle Quicke.A black and white photograph of the front of a brick building. The building is enclosed by a low metal fence and two open gates, and sits on an unsealed road. Behind the building are a number of tall trees.

This bassinet was used for new born babies at the first Orbost Hospital. It would have been used before 1961 as in August 1961, the Ladies' Auxiliary of the Orbost Hospital bought ten new chrome plated cribs for the hospital nursery. These new cribs were on wheels and could easily be taken to the wards. (ref. Orbost Hospital History, Personalities and Stories by Margaret Hollands)The Orbost Hospital was completed by the end of October 1929 after more than twenty years of agitation and preparation.
