10 Years before the NHS Nursing Illustrated Sampler on Display

To coincide with 70 Years of the NHS, the Library Service at Musgrove Park Hospital put a call-out in the Staff Bulletin inviting “anyone creative with a passion for making samplers/cross-stitch” to participate in making a sampler depicting 'A Day in the Life of a Nurse'. The sampler design, published ten years before the NHS, in 1938 editions of ‘Nursing Illustrated’ was serialised as nine patterns illustrating scenes of daily nursing activities of the time. Library Assistant, Natalie Parsley who coordinated the project says,

“As part of the Library Service team we are always looking for different ways to promote colleague wellbeing and engage with staff at the hospital and across Somerset Partnership. Having previously studied Fine Art I thought it would be really interesting to see if these designs could be brought to life again. Whilst these patterns pre-date the NHS by 10 years they offer an insight into how the perceived role of nursing has changed and in other ways remained similar. I have even enjoyed giving it a go myself!”

Participants include staff (and a family member) across the Taunton and Somerset NHS Foundation Trust and Somerset Partnership NHS Foundation Trust; Andria Haffenden, Louie Haffenden, Rachel Knott, Denise Manning, Natalie Parsley, Samantha Sweetland and Jennifer Wilkins. Comments on the project from participants;

“I have been cross stitching for some years now, and I taught Louie how to sew while he was recuperating from his treatment for a brain tumour. We have sat peacefully together for hours sometimes, each working on our own project, but enjoying the relaxation that making something creative can bring. It was fantastic for us to be involved with the project - we both loved being part of bringing a moment in nursing history to life.” - Andria Haffenden Chest Pain Assessment, Lead Nurse, MPH “I loved taking part and as I am nearing the end of my training it was a good reminder of the basics of nursing - looking after the patient first.” –Rachel Knott Community HCA, Bank Twilight Administrator & Sponsored Student Nurse, Shepton Mallet Community Hospital

The finished sampler is currently on display in the Musgrove Gallery (on the 1

st floor

of the Queens Building) to coincide with the NHS70 photography exhibition curated by Art for Life, on show until October. Afterwards the sampler will return to the Library at Musgrove Park Hospital for permanent display.
