The garden courtyard on the north side of The Swedish Hospital's B Building featured a small sunken pool and several flower beds. The nurses' residence is visible beyond the courtyard wall.
Two student nurses prepare trays for patients at St. Barnabas Hospital in Minneapolis while two nurses supervise their activities. The student nurse in the background is busy loading trays onto a dolly system that will transport the meals to smaller diet kitchens on each floor for distribution to patients.
Main kitchen at St. Barnabas Hospital in Minneapolis. A handwritten note on the back of the photograph gives the following description: The steam table is close to the table on which the trays are set. The lift serves four floors. Directly above the main Diet Kitchen are the four small floor diet kitchens where trays are received and taken at once to the patients. The lifts are hydraulic and steam heated. Except in extremely hot weather ice cream may be served on the tray without melting. On the four floors eighty patients are served in fifteen or twenty minutes.
