This paper argues that at the turn of the 19th century, nurses at the State Hospital in Morganton, North Carolina (now called Broughton Hospital) played critical roles in successfully implementing the best-known therapeutic methods of the time. They were also instrumental in developing the hospital's visibility and acceptance in rural western North Carolina. When the Hospital established its first nurse training school in 1895, this corps of first-generation western North Carolinians practising institutional nursing was highly esteemed in their field. Their skills not only served the community outside of the Hospital's walls, but were also sought out by other private and state asylums.
本文认为，在 19 世纪之交，北卡罗来纳州摩根顿州立医院（现称布劳顿医院）的护士在成功实施当时最著名的治疗方法方面发挥了关键作用。她们还为医院在北卡罗来纳州西部农村的知名度和认可度的提升做出了贡献。1895 年，医院建立了第一所护士培训学校，这一批第一代在西部行医的北卡罗来纳州护士在该领域备受推崇。她们的技能不仅服务于医院墙外的社区，还受到其他私人和州立收容所的追捧。
