- Description:
- Beginning in 1932, minutes of the Board of Trustees trace the growth and development of the facility from Dunson Hospital to West Georgia Medical Center. Fiscal matters, personnel, equipment and facilities are the main topics of business recorded in the minutes. Administrators' reports give an annual account of the hospital's status. Minutes from miscellaneous medical staff meetings, 1937-1973, indicate numbers of patients and types of illnesses treated at the hospital and document the guidelines followed by physicians associated with the hospital. Records are arranged in chronological order. [Note: West Georgia Medical Center has microfilm copies of these records.] Ground breaking ceremonies for the Medical Center in 1971 featuring Governor Jimmy Carter as speaker and Fuller E. Callaway, Jr. Appreciation Day, June 18, 1982, are recorded on cassette. The collection includes one photograph of Joseph Eugene Dunson, benefactor of the 1916 hospital.
