Ms. J. Caeli is the RDNS Medical Records Librarian and is visiting Ms.Val Douglas, the RDNS Social Worker, in her Office at RDNS Headquarters, 452 St. Kilda Road,Melbourne. Ms. Caeli is giving instruction to Ms. Douglas regarding statistics for Social Work. The Melbourne District Nursing Society (MDNS) were the first in Melbourne, in early 1928, to recognize some patients leaving the MDNS After-Care Home, and many at home, needed further social care. They set up ‘Almoners’ from their Committee to visit these patients and be intermediaries in getting them social assistance. It was late the following year before the first training of Almoners took place in Melbourne. In 1930 the Society employed a full time kindergarten teacher to visit poor children in their homes. In December 1934 the first full-time trained district Almoner, Miss Una Riall, was employed and carried out a great deal of work with the Society’s Midwifery patients. In 1935 she resigned as she felt the amount of work required needed more than one person. The Society were unable to obtain a replacement due to the shortage of trained Almoners so a Social Service Department was set up and a Social Service Officer, Sister Tupper, was employed at the After-Care Home; she successfully gained better housing from the Housing Commission for families living under unsuitable conditions. By 1941 conditions had improved with full employment of breadwinners and Sr. Tupper was appointed the Matron of the District Nursing Division of MDNS. In 1974, now as Royal District Nursing Service (RDNS), it was recognized the Service needed allied health workers and Ms. Val Douglas was employed as the RDNS first Social Worker.On the left of this black and white photograph is Royal District Nursing Service (RDNS), Ms. J.

Kelly and illustrated in part by Max Brödel. In the division between Volume 1 and Volume 2 there follows a logical anatomical and procedural split. Whereas Volume 1 concentrates on fundamental surgical principles, diagnostics, and operations on the lower genital/urinary tract. Volume 2 shifts focus to intra-abdominal, pelvic, and major organ surgeries. Volume 2 transitions into major intra-abdominal procedures (laparotomies/celiotomies) involving internal reproductive organs and neighbouring abdominal structures. The books are a technical, richly illustrated manuals for gynaecological surgery rather than a general medicine text. Its subject is operative treatment, anatomy, instruments, procedures, and surgical technique in women’s diseases, reflecting the early 20th-century development of gynaecology as a specialised surgical field.flagstaff hill, warrnambool, shipwrecked-coast, flagstaff-hill, flagstaff-hill-maritime-museum, maritime-museum, shipwreck-coast, flagstaff-hill-maritime-village, operative gynecology vol 1, book, howard kelly
