TitleInspectors Book
DescriptionEach report details the inspections made by the Visiting Directors, providing observations and suggestions on the condition and state of the establishment, the buildings and the grounds. Each report is signed by the Director. The entries vary in length and detail, with some being a few lines and others several pages with information about each individual hospital building.
