Meeting with Alexia Moncrieff

** It is important to understand that her specialist area applies to Australia**

Healing

-       They would have used massage to help recover the muscles but more often than not a massage specialist would have come in to do this: they would have also have done electric therapy for muscles

-       The changing of dressings/ bandages is not too dissimilar to today

-       They would have done operations in auxiliary hospitals but not major ones and these would be done by a surgeon who would have possibly been part of the hospital

Tasks the VAD’s did/ Entertainment

-       Dispensing of medications

-       The VAD’s and visiting ladies would have come in to occupy the soldiers with things such as French lessons or embroidery- in Alexia’s studies she found images of embroidered tunics the men made for the canteen staff

-       There would have been concerts in the grounds

-       Letter writing would have been done from the soldier’s home and by the nurses

-       Some hospitals had their own magazines and both the nurses and soldiers could have things published in them so they would have done some writing with this in mind

-       In the magazines they would have sometimes published portraits of single nurses

-       They would have made sure the soldiers were doing physical activities and these would differ depending on their wounds and injuries- if they were going back to the frontline they would have made to do physical tasks like star jumps and sit ups to make sure they were up to it

-       10  hour shifts- 11 days out of a fortnight

Class/ VADS

-       VAD’s were usually from an upper/ middle class area

-       The nurses and soldiers would sometimes misbehave and there are accounts of pregnancies and marriages from the war

-       Tension because the nurses were trained and worked hard and then volunteers could just be a nurse- there were signs which would say VAD’S not allowed

Why the soldiers were there

-       Anything that needed rehabilitation

-       A lot of the time it was a physical injury- people lost toes and fingers

-       Some of the time it was from actual diseases such as tuberculosis/ influenza

-       ‘Shell Shock’ stopped being used as a phrase in 1916- it would be war neurosis but people still said it

-       On average a man would visit rehabilitation 2.6 times

-       They would have been there because they were near family or everywhere would be full

How they would get from the battlefield to Leeds

-       They would go on a stretch bearer or make themselves to regimental aid post

-       Then if they were bad they would go to casualty clearing then evacuated by ambulance train then general hospital then auxiliary

-       These trains would be bringing stuff to the battlefield and that was priority though

-       There was a hospital ship to get over the border

Bandages/ Treatment

-       Gauze/ pressure/ well above and well below the sore

-       If there was an upper leg wound there would be a Thomas splint will post picture reduced deaths from 85% to 16%

-       Eye wounds – Andrew Banji book called faces from the front

What would you want as an audience member:

-       Personal stories and social interactions/ what their life was like

-       Really do some hotspotting

found this, any of the soldiers could adapt and put into own words or say the same speech?

Temple Newsam and World War One

In the shadows of despair and through flickers of sparks and light, I am injured in the war. I am brought back to England, then Leeds to Beckett’s Park Hospital. My leg, they fear that the infection is spreading fast, so with a scalpel and saw they remove it quick. They send me to Temple Newsam to recover and recuperate at will. A house like this I never saw before, and for the first few days I stare around in awe.

In my head I relive the war, thunderous bangs and shaking ground. Men on both sides live in fear of never seeing again those they hold dear. Farmers’ fields are not the only thing destroyed there. All these are the endless bodies of the dead. Heaven’s angels attend to the dead, and the living and breathing are in hospital beds.

In the Great Hall, I awaken to the smell of tobacco smoke and the chatter of men. Men who saw the terror, as did I on those frightful battlefields. They miss limbs; burned bodies and healing holes that shells exposed down to the bone.

VAD, they call the girls in here with their pristine sterile gowns. They are overlooked by sisters and matron in turn. Lady Wood is in charge and gives the final word, whether in French to the Belgians, or King’s tongue to the English and the Irish as one. Girls from the local towns do charring and give a helping hand.

Foreign families from Belgium fill the stable blocks, always smile and give a nod when passing me on the terrace. They send their children to the local school and they soon come past singing our national anthem. They soon learn the way of the English land but their parents try hard to understand.

We sit here safe at night because of our great grandparents of yesterday: they fought for their country of red, white and blue. For this we must thank them with our hearts, take off our hats and bow our heads with respect for all those living and dead.

Megan and Rosie's friendship poem (VAD nurses)

# data[].attributes.body
We work at temple Newsam, serving the soldiers sent back from war.

Wounded and traumatised, our job begins as they are wheeled through the door.

New stories, and new faces; we treat them all with care. Regardless of what happened at war, we will always be there.

Firm friendships are formed as we walk alongside one another, the soldiers also become companions and we think of them like our own brother.

Bonjour, Hello, ay up, good day.

One minute in yorkshire, the next in france, if we could stay together, we wouldn’t go away.

Bandaging, cleaning - our work never ends.

Temple Newsam is our home and we will forever cherish our friends.

Design Ideas:
4 beds in the ward, 3 used for the soldiers, one for aesthetic purposes.

Aesthetic bed: Elle has a moodboard on which beds decorated with poppy petals or lights or sheets. One stood out to me, which was the one with string coming off the bottom frame, cascading outwards onto the floor with little ping pong balls on the end (will try and source the picture). Was thinking we could adapt that idea and instead of little ping pong balls we could use scraps of letters or poetry or pieces of fabric, because this would be the bed of George, a soldier we never actually see. This bed would be scattered with little pieces such as medals, pictures, letters, sketches and other items to depict George.

Sound ideas: little battery powered speakers hidden around the house with continuous pieces of music, poems read aloud, a hubbub of ward noises and the footsteps of the Matron.

Elle had the idea of the house getting more intimate the smaller the spaces get. So for instance, the Great Hall is a hustle and bustle of abstract, decorative movement pieces and large-scale generalised scenes such as the sheets, bunting, nurse’s dance and the ghost story. Moving into the terrace and the ward we get more personal stories from the soldiers, the visit of Dr Bean, the new nurse story-line and the love story unfolding.  In the gardens we get the nurse’s poems and stories of their friendship. Then in the cinema room we have the movies and the one-to-one nightmares of the nurses and soldiers being sent to the front, and intimate tales of their before-during-after experience of the war.

Verse] I just received an answer to a letter that I wrote, From a pal who marched away, He was wounded in the trenches somewhere in France And I worried about him night and day, "Are you getting well," was what I wrote, This is what he answered in his note: [Chorus 1.]

Thanks to Vera Brittain and her memoir, Testament of Youth, the most enduring female image of WWI is the VAD. At the outbreak of war, there were already thousands of members of the voluntary organization, which had been founded in 1909 under the joint efforts of the British Red Cross Society and the St. John Ambulance Society. Numbers swelled when many realized the seriousness of the war, and these untrained nurses-to the consternation of trained professional nurses-soon filled positions in hospitals both military and auxiliary. The relationship between professional nurses, who put in years of schooling and training before being considered fit for work, and VADs could be strained, particularly when many VADs were upper class and aristocratic girls who had never worked a day in their lives. Nevertheless, but the end of the war, professional nurses and VADs proved their collective mettle in the cooking, nursing, cleaning and administration of hospitals.

Voluntary Aid Detachments were organized in each county and consisted of men (yes, men!!) and women:

The Men's Detachment
1 Commandant
1 Medical Officer
1 Quartermaster
1 Pharmacist
4 Section Leaders
48 Men

The Women's Detachment
1 Commandant (man or woman)
1 Medical Officer (if the commandant is not a doctor)
1 Lady Superintendent (who should be a trained nurse)
1 Quartermaster (man or woman)
1 Pharmacist
20 women, of whom four should be qualified as cooks

Each Red Cross detachment was registered by the Council of the British Red Cross Society, given a number by the War Office, formed part of the Technical Reserve, and was inspected annually by an Inspecting Officer detailed by the General Officers' Commanding.

To focus on the women's detachments: those who joined the VAD were trained in cookery, sanitation, bandaging and dressings, washing of bodies and linens, and proper procedure before, during, and after surgeries. To become a VAD Member, a woman would write to her Country Director for instructions, or to the Secretary of the Joint Women's VAD Department, which was stationed inside Devonshire House, who would then forward the name of her local County Director.

For admittance to nurse in a military hospital, prospective VADs were required to be aged 21-48 for home service, or 23-42 for foreign service. On completion of a probationary period of one month, they then signed a contract for six months service, and were paid £20 per annum for the first six months. £22 10s per annum was paid for the signing on of another six months, and there were further increments of £2 10s each half year until the salary reached £30 per annum. They were given an allowance of £5 per annum for uniform (either the black and white or grey uniform of the St. John or the blue uniform of the BRCS, and a small handkerchief cap). Lodging, food, washing, and traveling expenses were paid. For work in an auxiliary hospital, the VAD signed a contract before admittance, stating she would remain for three months after a fortnight's probation. The VAD working in an auxiliary hospital-frequently converted schools, country houses, and large village buildings-had to provide her own uniform (Garroud's was a popular destination, though some ordered a custom uniform from smart department stores like Harrods), but her other expenses were paid.

Gilbert Stone detailed the daily duties of a V.A.D. in Women War Workers:
Those who work in a V.A.D. hospital have, on the whole, an easier time than those in a military hospital. The hours are shorter, and allowance is made for human weakness by more regular time off every day and precious half-days off every week. On the other hand, the military hospitals offer you gold for your services not very much gold, but enough to live on. Thus you cease to be a voluntary nurse in the accepted sense, but you are still under the wing of either the Red Cross or the St John's Ambulance.

The day work begins at 7 a.m., when the kitchen staff and the housemaids arrive, and the hospital is swept and polished, the beds are made, and the men's breakfast is served. The men who are well enough to get up are expected to help make beds and sweep the wards. After breakfast the night nurses go off and the day nurses arrive. This is the
most instructive time for the V.A.D. nurse, for now the dressings are done by the sister in each ward. In most of the military hospitals the professional probationers help her, and the V.A.D. only picks up unconsidered trifles of knowledge, but in the V.A.D. hospitals she is at the right hand of the sister, and if she has the good fortune to work under one who knows how to give the amateur credit for slight signs of human intelligence she soon becomes a very useful member of the nursing staff.

The doctor's round is the chief event of the morning, and after that the men who are well enough go out for a walk or drive or pass the time with needlework and games in the recreation room. The afternoon is spent by the men in sleeping, walking, or entertaining visitors, and by the V.A.D.s in light ward work, such as washing and ironing ties and bandages, tidying the lockers and medicine cupboards, and cutting up dressings. The afternoon is the time when the wards are expected to be in perfect order beds not an inch out of line, castors all turned the same way, nothing unnecessary on the lockers, and no speck of dust anywhere.

The evening again bristles with work and interest. Dressings and fomentations to put on, beds to be made, medicines to be given, and hot-water bottles to be filled. At 9 o'clock the lights are turned out, the night sister and her
nurses come in and take possession, and the day staff is dismissed.

Thekla Bowser, author of The Story of British V.A.D. Work in the Great War, describes work for V.A.D.s in France:

There are hundreds of V.A.D. members working as nurses and orderlies in the great Military Hospitals at the various Bases; there are dozens of members working in the same way in Auxiliary Red Cross Hospitals; there are members who spend their whole lives on railway stations, attending to the wounded as they come straight down from the firing line. There are Units of girl motorists who drive ambulances, and dozens of others who run canteens for convalescent soldiers who have not had the luck to be sent to England and who are sadly in need of the understanding word given by a woman whilst she ministers to their physical comforts. Some V.A.D. members do nothing but clerical work, many being engaged in the sad labour of trying to trace "Missing" men.

There are in France a great many large Hospitals which come under the general term of Red Cross Hospitals. This means that they are not General or Stationary Military Hospitals, but are kept up by Red Cross funds and are staffed by Red Cross members, though in every case fully trained Sisters are in charge of the wards. In these Red Cross Hospitals the work for V.A.D. members is apportioned with the greatest care. There are those who have had some nursing experience who are put into the wards to act as probationers under the Sisters. When there is a big push on, and the Hospital is filled to overflowing by wounded men who come down direct from the Front, these girls have the chance of proving themselves exceedingly useful to the Sisters.

By the end of the war, thousands of British women served on various Fronts (and some had died from shelling or illness), thus proving their worth to men and to society-and also to professional nurses. 😉

For a little more information, the British Red Cross Society has uploaded some letters of a VAD, and an excerpt from a cookery handbook for VAD cooks! Sue Light's Scarletfinders website and its accompanying blog, This Intrepid Band, are also excellent resources for women's nursing in WWI.
