To thses are assigned wards in the hospital, with attendance upon the sick under the daily supervision of the professors of the College and the resident physician.

Notes: Hospital Facilities
The Maryland Homoepathic Hospital is controlled by the Faculty, and offers every requirement for the sick or injured, both in the private rooms and public wards, which are in charge of a corps of trained nurses, directed by an efficient superintendent. Almost from its opening day its wards have been well filled. A large portion of the building is used as a
City Hospital
and contains charity beds supported by the City of Baltimore. This department of the Hospital is taxed to its utmost capacity to afford accomodations for patients seeking admission. Accident cases (never rare in a great city), as well as patients suffering from the various general medical and surgical diseases, occupy the beds and add greatly tot he facilities for clinical teaching enjoyed by the school.This portion of the hospital is conducted with the special purpose of furnishing clinical material to be used in illustration of the lectures. The arrangement of the building is well adapted for clinical purposes, and the Faculty is thus in position to make prominent this important feature of a medical course. In addition to the regular clinical Lectures in the ampitheatre, much attention is also devoted to strictly bedside instruction, in which the third year students in classes are required to accompany the physician or surgeon through the wards, and to thus become practically familiar with the methods of diagnosis and treatment.Source: Second Annual Annoucement of the Southern Homeopathic Medical College and Hospital, session of 1891-2 Baltimore: Press of Thomas & Evans: 10
