Judge Putney’s endowment came with three provisions: * That the hospital be named after his mother "Phoebe" Putney. * That the hospital serve all citizens of the community, regardless of race or ability to pay. * That the hospital be a brick building in order to withstand the greatest threat to structures at the time - fire. The hospital officially opened its doors to patients on August 1, 1911. The hospital was at the centre of a criminal case in 1986 after a GBI investigation following an unusually high percentage of cardiac arrests. Nurse Terri Rachals was indicted on twenty counts of aggravated assault, and convicted on one count as "guilty but mentally ill" of aggravated assault with intent to murder. Potassium chloride was injected into a bag of frozen plasma which was then introduced to a patient's body. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
