From www.rubylane.com/shops/nursingpins This is a wonderful find from the South Side Chicago Hospital in 1901. So many photographs of nurses in hospitals from the early 1900's are not identified. This is a nice find because not only is the Hospital identified, the nurse is too. The brother of the baby wrote on the back of the matte "Brother - 2wks.old in the arms of nurse Wanzer (of the Wanzer Milk Company) at Chicago Hospital (South side Chicago) Feb - 25 - 1901" (Sidney Wanzer & Sons Milk and Cream was a large operation in Chicago from the 1850's thru the 1900's)

Nurses will be banned from calling the elderly 'dearie' or 'love' to avoid offending them under controversial new rules.

What appear to be staff nurses but no clue as to what institution they might come from

I've wanted to watch this film for so long as it features my 2 favorite actresses, Barbara Stanwyck and Joan Blondell. "Night Nurse" was made in 1931, so being a pre-code film it contains lots of cute 1930's lingerie, as well as lots of great hats and coats. I especially love the old nurse uniforms!
