Biographical History
The first building for the Jewish Hospital of St. Louis, located at 5815 Delmar Boulevard, opened in 1902. It was the result of a long fund-raising effort that began in 1878. Governance consisted of a Board of Directors. In the early days an Executive Committee of the resident physician, matron, and other staff played a major role. A nursing school for the hospital also opened in 1902. Superintendants were often nurses. Enormous growth in the Jewish Community resulted in the purchase of property in 1920 for a new Hospital on Kingshighway near the Washington University medical School, and St. Luke's, Barnes and Children's Hospitals. A move to a new building there came in 1927. Prior to 1952, voluntary medical staff determined professional policy but served without compensation.
