Pfefferkorn study of the Los Angeles County General Hospital, 1940.

A double-spaced typescript report with cover title: "Pfefferkorn Study. [Los Angeles County General Hospital]". Blanche Pfefferkorn, who at the time was Director, Department of Studies, of the New York City-based National League of Nursing Education, conducted a study of the nursing service provided in the Los Angeles County Hospital and the Los Angeles Osteopathic Hospital. Since student nurses from the County General Hospital School of Nursing were receiving clinical training in the institution, the School of Nursing is included in the report's recommendations. The "Preliminary statement" and the Appendix are missing from this copy of the report, as are almost all of the tables. After the first 25 pages, the page numbers indicated in the table of contents no longer match the copy's pagination.
