FARMER,+Jean+Mary

FARMER, Jean Mary (1930-1980) Brentford and Chiswick 1948; Royal College of Nursing 1951; Glaxo 1954; Southampton 1957; Lambeth 1966; CL Guy's Hospital Medical and Dental School 1971-1980 Although her much too short life provided her with inadequate time to complete drastic reorganization at Guy's, she secured more adequate funding, better staffing and updated routines and gave it a new sense of purpose. She was a tiny person; her nickname 'the mighty atom' was well earned.
