1920's Johns Hopkins Social Services Car - used to transport patients back and forth to the hospital. In October 1907, eighteen years after the hospital first opened its doors and began treating patients, it established its own Department of Social Services. For the first few years, the department consisted of one person, Miss Helen B. Pendleton and later followed by Miss Helen S. Wilmer. These dedicated women worked tirelessly to ensure that all patients, regardless of their background, received necessary services and treatment. This included acquisition of eyeglasses, clothing, medications, leg braces, and dental work. Many of the expenses required to meet these goals were paid out of their own earnings.
