📜 A Look Back: The 10th National Hospital Day Report (1931)
As we reflect on the history behind National Hospital Week, the 1931 Official Report of the Committee of the 10th National Hospital Day offers an incredible snapshot of how far this celebration had grown in just a decade.
🔹 Widespread Participation
On May 12, 1931, 47 states, the District of Columbia, six Canadian provinces, as well as Alaska and New Zealand took part in National Hospital Day activities.
Historical note: In 1931, the U.S. had only 48 states—Alaska and Hawaii were still territories and wouldn’t achieve statehood until 1959.
🔹 AHA’s Nationwide Outreach
For that year’s event, the AHA distributed 6,500 leaflets with program ideas and publicity tips to help local leaders organize their efforts.
🔹 Support from National Leadership
President Herbert Hoover met with an AHA delegation—President Sexton, Father Garesche, and Committee Chairman Matthew Foley—again expressing his active support for National Hospital Day.
🔹 Radio: The Rising Communications Powerhouse
The Committee focused heavily on securing national radio coverage. An estimated 450 radio announcements aired across chain broadcasts.
🔹 Chicago Leading the Way
In Chicago alone, at least 775 local programs were organized by local chairs and committees, highlighting the role of hospitals and the purpose behind National Hospital Day.
These early efforts helped build the foundation for what later became National Hospital Week—an enduring tradition celebrating hospitals, caregivers, and the communities they serve.
