Description: Norwalk, CONNECTICUT - Mary A Bedford Home for Nurses: Norwalk officially the City of Norwalk, Connecticut, is a suburban New England city in Fairfield County, Connecticut, United States and is part of New York metropolitan area. The population of the city was reported at 85,853 as of 2012. Norwalk Hospital is a not-for-profit, acute care community teaching hospital in the Spring Hill section of Norwalk, Connecticut. The hospital serves a population of 250,000 in lower Fairfield County, Connecticut. To train enough nurses, the Nursing School badly needed its own building. Bedford made a 50 percent challenge pledge that was matched through a Kiwanis Club campaign and Knights of Columbus benefits, to erect the Mary A. Bedford Nurses Home in 1926. John J. Cavanagh, a brother of Margaret Cavanagh who helped found the hospital, went on to underwrite the entire Bedford Pavilion, which doubled the hospital's capacity to 160 in 1929. This Linen Era (1930-45) postcard is in good condition.
