Description |
The Columbus Society for the Prevention and Control of Tuberculosis, a predecessor organization to the Breathing Association, was founded by Carrie Nelson Black in 1906. A visionary civic leader, she remained its president until her death in 1936. One of her programs, Nightingale Cottage, was a disease prevention and convalescent home for children located on Brice Road in Columbus, Ohio. Patients were referred by the local children’s hospital, the university hospital, the district nursing association, private physicians, courts, and health agencies. Nightingale Cottage was dedicated in 1931 and demolished in 1973. These photographic negatives show activities of the Breathing Association and its fight against tuberculosis. After the use of antibiotics began bringing the rates of tuberculin contagion under control, the focus of the Breathing Association transitioned to lung health. |
