City Hospital Gains In Upgraded Standards
Improvements at Indianapolis City Hospital include a stone and iron fence, new cement sidewalks, a modern service ward with separate dining areas, expanded bath facilities, and updated kitchens. Tuberculosis colonies and contagious disease wards have been enhanced, a large laundry and sterilizing setup added, ambulances redirected to rear doors, and records bound. Despite progress, officials say the city’s hospital remains the region’s weakest large municipal facility and requires more beds, new buildings, and a dedicated laboratory with a chief in charge.
