Hospital Records

The Multnomah County Hospital was built to serve the county’s poorest patients, and also to provide practical experience for physicians in training – residents, interns, and students from the nearby University of Oregon Medical School. This collection contains patient records, administrative records, and intern class photographs.

The Oregon State Tuberculosis Hospital, in Salem, OR, began admitting patients in 1910 and later merged with the University of Oregon Medical School State Tuberculosis Hospital. The collection contains reports, birth certificate books, admissions and discharges, scrapbooks, photographs, and correspondence.
