The Canadian Museum of Civilization
and the Canadian War Museum house an extensive collection on nursing
history. The core of the collection includes over a thousand
artifacts - from syringe kits to military medals - donated
by the Canadian Nurses Association.
This important material, along with the nurses' caps and other artifacts,
will be the basis of a future exhibition at the CMC on the history
of nursing in Canada.
Information on the majority of these artifacts is available in our
online
collections catalogue.
