	Amelia Greenwald and the Nursing School at the Old Jewish Hospital at Czyste in Warsaw

	The American nurse Amelia Greenwald was the creator and first director of the Jewish School of Nursing at the Old Jewish Hospital in Warsaw. During World War I she served in the American Expeditionary Corps fi ghting in Europe and was a member of the American Red Cross. In 1923, Greenwald received a proposal to create and run one of the most modern educational institutions training nurses in Warsaw, Poland. The school was founded thanks to the efforts of the American-Jewish Medical Affairs Committee of the Joint Distribution Committee, also known as Joint and the Society for Supporting the School of Nurses at the Old Jewish Hospital in Warsaw. The history of the school created by Greenwald has already been described by Zofia Podgórka-Klawe and Iwona Kowalkowska. The first of them outlined the functioning of the institution based on the prospectus of the School of Nursing developed in 1928 by the then director Sabina Schindlerówna. The second author also reviewed the medical press and described the wartime period of the school and the fate of its graduates. This article focuses on the character of the first headmistress of the School and her work on establishing the institution. As the main source base, documents collected in the Archives of the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee (JDC Archives) were used and made available on the website https://archives.jdc.org. The author has translated some documents from English to Polish to present the history of the Nursing School at the Old Jewish Hospital in Warsaw.
