Organisation médicale pendant la première guerre mondiale. L’exemple de l’hôpital américain de Saint-Parize-le-Châtel

2016

The data obtained from the diagnosis carried out in 2014 in Saint-Parize-le-Châtel, in Nievre, compared with those obtained from the archives and information provided by local authorities, enabled us to retrace the history of this large American hospital (700 permanent buildings on 330 ha) built during the winter of 1918-1919. The spatial organization of the camp, which meets various criteria (patient/caregiver, male/female, officers/soldiers, living areas/care areas/technical areas), and equipment (radiology, disinfection, laboratories...) show that it was conceived as a place benefiting from pioneering advances in matters of health.
