  Inuit Patients, 1955: Mobility and Municipal Hospitals

  July 5, 2022

  In 1955, Inuit patients travelled from their home communities to Churchill and on to Clearwater Lake Indian Hospital near The Pas. From there they were split into two groups that were sent to Dynevor Indian Hospital near Selkirk and Brandon Indian Sanatorium. This case study highlights the potential mobility of patients, which can be a challenge in tracking their time in TB care. The case study also points to the role that municipal hospitals played in Indigenous TB patient care.
