Interview with Barkley Moore, October 26, 1978
Project: Frontier Nursing Service Oral History Project
Interview Summary
Barkley Moore discusses the Oneida Baptist Institute and the maternity hospital associated with it. He also tells of a community doctor making rounds on horseback before the health care facility was established. For a time the medical work of the hospital was administered by the Commonwealth of Kentucky, with doctors being rotated from the University of Louisville. In 1954 the state government withdrew, and Moore details the difficulty of locating an organization to run the facility. After a period in which the Seventh Day Adventist Church administered the hospital, the FNS took over its operation for a time. Moore comments upon the nursing clinic staffed and maintained by FNS personnel. He gives details of the relationships among the school, the community, and the FNS.Interview Accession
