Mahoney recognized the need for nurses to work together to improve the status of blacks in the profession. Also, as a professionally trained nurse, she was noted for her expert care of the sick. Black students were accepted to the school as long as they met the requirements. With her graduation, Mahoney changed the face of nursing. In 1879, out of a class of 40 students, only she, at age 34, and two other white students, graduated. Unlike many blacks of her day, Mary Mahoney decided not to go into domestic work, but enrolled in nursing school. It might have eased for her the fatigue of the 16 hour day and the weariness of the 7 day week devoted to washing and ironing, cleaning and scrubbing, which was the lot of student nurses of her day. She lived with her parents, Charles Mahoney and Mary Jane Steward Mahoney, at 31 Westminster Street in Roxbury.Ĭould she have known how much her enrollment in a school of nursing was to mean to the future of nursing, that knowledge might have helped her over the rough places where she trod. Mary Mahoney was born in Boston in 1845 an unverified report gives the date as Aril 16. Thus began the record of the indomitable courage of the 90 pound Negro woman who became the first graduate nurse of her race in America. On page 5 of this simple little book, the name Mary Mahoney has been inscribed. Source: At the New England Hospital for Women and Children in Roxbury, Massachusetts, a three-by-five, black, paper-covered memorandum book is kept under lock and key, along with other historical materials dealing with the founding and operation of this institution devoted to the medical and nursing education of women.
