Nursing Artifacts on Display
With support from donors Beth Bakke and Elise Stratton, a new cabinet in the Nursing Skills Lab in Marston Hall houses nursing memorabilia from the Seattle Pacific University Archives, including vintage uniforms, a metal anesthesia mask, and even an assortment of bedpans. Many of the items were donated by Professor Emerita of Nursing Ruby Englund. To visit the display, contact Julie Ann Harrington in the School of Health Sciences at 206-281-2606.
