1Title:  Rachel Diane Landy Papers     
 Creator:  Landy, Rachel Diane 
 Dates:  1913-1999 
 Abstract:  Rachel Diane Landy was a Jewish nurse from Cleveland, Ohio. Born in Lithuania, she and her family immigrated to Cleveland, Ohio, in 1890. After graduation from nursing school, she worked in Cleveland with Dr. George Crile as an operating room nurse. In 1907 she began her association with Harlem Hospital in New York City. In 1913 she began a visiting nurse program in Palestine sponsored by the newly organized women's organization, Hadassah. In 1915 she returned to Cleveland to nurse her parents. In 1916, she relocated to New York City, becoming assistant superintendent of nurses at Fordham Hospital, and in 1917, superintendent of nurses at the Montefiore Home County Sanitarium in Bedford Hills, New York. In July 1918 she entered the United States Army Nursing Corps. During her army career she was stationed in Europe, in the Philippines, and at various army installations throughout the United States. In 1940 she became one of four assistant superintendents of the Army Nurse Corps. Her final army assignment, in 1943, was as the chief of nurses at the Crile Army Hospital in Cleveland. She retired from the army in 1945, and died in Cleveland in 1952. She is buried in Arlington National Cemetery. The collection consists of photocopies of certificates, correspondence, newspaper and magazine articles, writings, and speeches.

2Title:  Mount Sinai Hospital Records, Series II     
 Creator:  Mount Sinai Hospital 
 Dates:  1915-2004 
 Abstract:  Mount Sinai Hospital had its origins in the Young Ladies Hebrew Association for the Care of the Needy Sick, created in 1892 by nine young women in Cleveland, Ohio. In 1900, they changed their name to the Jewish Women's Hospital Association. A 29-bed facility, named Mount Sinai Hospital, opened in 1903 at 2373 E. 37th St. In 1916, a new, larger facility was opened at E. 105th St. and Ansel Rd. Innovations included outpatient clinics for pediatrics and mental hygiene, established in 1915. A nursing school was included. Mount Sinai affiliated with Western Reserve University for the training and education of its nurses in 1930, and its doctors in 1947. Medical research was given a high priority. The Women's and Junior Women's auxiliaries provided important assistance to the medical staff and patients, including a nursery school for children of nurses and volunteers. Mount Sinai served as a major medical resource for Cleveland's east side throughout its history. Expansion included a twelve-story building and a kidney dialysis center (1960), a new laboratory facility (1970), and an outpatient clinic in the Cleveland suburb of Beachwood (1972). A new medical wing was added to the hospital in the 1980s, and in 1993 an integrated medical campus was opened at the Beachwood facility. In 1996, the nonprofit hospital was sold to a for-profit company, Primary Health Systems (PHS). In March 1999, PHS filed for bankruptcy, and in February 2000, Mount Sinai Hospital closed. The collection consists of agendas, annual reports, budgets, bylaws, certificates, contracts, constitutions, correspondence, financial statements, handbooks, ledgers, legal briefs, minutes, newsletters, newspaper clippings, notebooks, play scripts, reports, resolutions, rosters, scrap books, histories, publications, speech texts, surveys, and tax records.
