Camden Area District Nursing Association opens a one-room office on the second floor of the Opera House, where the fee for a visit is $.50 or “at the most, $1,” as reported in The Camden Herald.

 

Camden Area District Nursing Association was founded in 1920 at the YMCA on Chestnut Street to provide nursing care to residents in their homes, regardless of their ability to pay.
