Six mothers are today tending to their own children at Jaffray Hospital, Erdington
Six mothers are today tending to their own children at Jaffray Hospital, Erdington, and four of them have taken their other children with them to stay and play. This new approach is being pioneered by staff at the hospital after staff at the United Birmingham Hospitals Group decided that children would recover better from serious illnesses if they were not isolated entirely from their families. 17th May 1963

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, taken on May 17th, 1963, we witness a groundbreaking approach to pediatric care at Jaffray Hospital in Erdington. Six dedicated mothers can be seen tending to their own children within the hospital's walls, while four of them have brought along their other children for a stay and play session. This innovative concept was introduced by the forward-thinking staff at United Birmingham Hospitals Group who believed that isolating sick children from their families hindered their recovery process. The image captures the essence of compassion and love as these mothers selflessly devote themselves to caring for their little ones. The bond between mother and child is palpable in every tender touch and comforting smile exchanged. It is heartwarming to witness how this progressive approach not only nurtures physical healing but also fosters emotional well-being. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the transformative power of family support during times of illness. By breaking down barriers between patients and loved ones, Jaffray Hospital pioneers an era where holistic healthcare becomes paramount. As we delve into this snapshot from the past, it reminds us that even amidst medical advancements over time, some fundamental values remain timeless – the importance of nurturing bonds within our families for better health outcomes.
