Arrangement:
The collection has been divided into eight series based on record type or subject. Within these series, records are further sub-divided and are arranged chronologically. Administrative History:
The House of Recovery and Fever Hospital on Cork Street, Dublin, had its origins in meetings of a group of wealthy and philanthropic men drawn from Anglican and Quaker congregations in October 1801. Dublin, as elsewhere in Europe in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, possessed conditions that ensured an abundance of infectious diseases. Those present at the meetings in October 1801 had a clear idea of the nature and scale of such health issues, stating that ''...no adequate Hospital accommodation has hitherto been provided for the relief of the Sick poor of Dublin afflicted with fever (especially such as may be of a contagious Nature)'. Influenced by a fever hospital movement in Britain, the provisional Committee believed that the solution lay in the 'establishment of a House of Recovery to which patients on the first appearance of Fever might be removed''. Less than three years later, on 14 May 1804, the newly-erected House of Recovery and Fever Hospital on Cork Street admitted its first batch of patients. As its name suggests, the hospital separated the sick from convalescents by the construction of two buildings 116 feet apart in an early attempt at infection control. The erection of such purpose-built buildings was intentional, as the hospital's founders were influenced by prevailing theories regarding control of infectious diseases. In the early decades of the hospital's existence its catchment area expanded from the Dublin Liberties to the whole of the city. Hospital buildings were extended to meet admissions triggered by regular epidemics which ravaged the poorest districts in the city. A fever epidemic in 1817-1819 and further outbreaks of typhus and cholera in the 1820s and 1830s placed severe strain on hospital resources. In 1847 tents were erected and 400 emergency beds provided to allow for the admission of patients suffering from a typhus outbreak, which had been stimulated in large part by the influx into Dublin of thousands of famine-stricken refugees from

the countryside. In the 1860s and 1870s epidemics of smallpox resulted in overcrowding and a record case fatality of 20.78%, recorded in 1878. In the last few decades of the century measles, typhoid, scarlet fever and smallpox predominated, prompting the hospital governors to build the 'Red House' on the grounds of Cork Street, and to open an auxiliary hospital for convalescents at Beneavin, Finglas. In 1891 hospital reports recorded diphtheria for the first time, a disease which became a significant health problem in the early twentieth century with the arrival in Dublin of the virulent 'gravis' strain. The early twentieth century witnessed significant changes at Cork Street. In 1904 the hospital was granted a Royal Charter, in which Dr John Marshall Day was designated first Medical Superintendent. In 1936 the Dublin Fever Hospital Act changed the hospital from voluntary to municipal control, and sought to ''make provision for the establishment of a new fever hospital in or near the city of Dublin and for the closing of the House of Recovery and Fever Hospital, Cork Street, Dublin''. Planning for the development of a new hospital was long and protracted, however, and the Second Word War and a 1944 sworn inquiry into alleged maladministration in the hospital contributed to delays. Led by the efforts of Dr Day's successor as Medical Superintendent, Dr C.J. McSweeney, a 74-acre site was finally secured at Blackditch, Palmerstown, Co. Dublin, and building tenders received in early 1950. The hospital board decided that as the name Blackditch evoked images of plague and death, the address of the new hospital should be changed to Cherry Orchard. In November 1953, patients and staff vacated the premises at Cork Street and moved to the new House of Recovery and Dublin Fever Hospital, Cherry Orchard. The early years of the new hospital witnessed high numbers of admissions of patients, with poliomyelitis, diphtheria, measles, and tuberculous meningitis predominating. By the 1970s and 1980s, however, immunisation programmes had greatly reduced the incidences of these illnesses. Although admissions to Cherry Orchard remained high through to the 1990s, peaking in 1982, infectious diseases were in decline. Services were therefore broadened to include psychiatric services, palliative care, drug rehabilitation services, care for the elderly, care for people who were HIV positive, and care for chronic young disabled people. In 2002, the wards were closed to acute infectious diseases.

Description:
Minute books and agenda books relating to the management of Cork Street Fever Hospital and Cherry Orchard Hospital between 1801 and 1961. The minute books which cover the years between 1801 and 1936 detail the proceedings of the voluntary Managing Committee of Cork Street Fever Hospital. This run of minute books is complete with the exception of those covering the period between 31 July 1828 and 6 January 1842. On 31 December 1936, Cork Street lost its voluntary status and management passed to the newly-formed Dublin Fever Hospital Board. This board presided over the hospital's move from Cork Street to Cherry Orchard in November 1953. In 1960 Dublin Fever Hospital Board was dissolved and the management of Cherry Orchard Hospital passed to the newly-established Dublin Health Authority. This sub-series contains one minute book from the period after this change of governance, that of the transitional Cherry Orchard Hospital Advisory Committee. Note that this sub-series also contains a private minute book and a volume of minutes of the Cork Street Hospital Social Club. Arrangement:

Bound volume containing manuscript minutes of Committee meetings. Includes minutes of meetings of the provisional committee that met with the aim of establishing a house of recovery and fever hospital in the district of the Dublin Liberties. The minutes show the efforts of the Committee to raise money to fund the establishment of a fever hospital, and to find a plot of suitable ground on which to erect a hospital building. After a proposed purchase of land from Robert Mercer fell through, the Committee resolved on 15 February 1802 to conclude an agreement for an orchard south of Cork Street held by Anne Donnelly in a lease from Alexander Ross. The new building was completed in the space of two years, and the first patients admitted on 14 May 1804. The minutes also contain information relating to the subsequent management and development of the hospital, including the employment of physicians,
