From the
Richmond
Whig, Tuesday, 7/29/ 1862, p. 1
MARYLAND
HOSPITAL
. - We regret to hear that this hospital is not so well attended to as it should
be. The supply of nurses is said to be inadequate, and being all, or nearly all,
hired nurses, they are less careful of the patients than other nurses. Our
authority for this statement is an officer of the Maryland Artillery, now absent
from this city, who visited the hospital in search of a friend. The
Maryland
refugees in this city are very numerous, and we feel sure that they need but a
hint to remedy all defects of the
Maryland
Hospital
at once. Perhaps if the hospital were moved higher up town, within easy reach
of the
Maryland
ladies, there would no longer be any cause for complaint.
