Type: article

Abstract: This blog post examines the foundation of the Camden Cottage Hospital. By the 1890s, Camden's economy depended on dairy, but health concerns arose due to infectious diseases like scarlet fever. In response, the community pushed for a cottage hospital, leading to its opening in 1899. Local efforts highlighted the crucial link between health and the dairy industry's sustainability.
