 ><em>"I learned a great deal about socioeconomic stratification. From the c
 ase studies my observations and guess of the underlying themes led me to wo
 nder if many of the patients who posed challenges during treatment also suf
 fered from poverty. When you’re worried about putting food on the table or 
 going to jail\, I imagine health becomes less of a concern.  When one enter
 s life on the bottom rung\, it’s remarkably difficult to climb up. Thank yo

 <p>Helen Elizabeth Nash broke down racial barriers when she became the firs
 t African-American doctor to join the staff of St. Louis Children’s Hospita
 l in 1949. She was born in Atlanta\, the third of six children. A 1942 grad
 uate of Spelman College with high honors\, Nash graduated from Meharry Medi
 cal College in Nashville in 1945. Her father\, who received his medical deg
 ree from Meharry in 1910\, was initially resistant to his daughter studying
  medicine. However\, once Helen made the honor roll her first semester\, he
  accepted and supported her career choice. Despite harsh discrimination aga
 inst black Americans and women in medicine\, she was determined to become a
  physician\, and her upbringing and education had given her the self-confid
 ence she would need to succeed.</p><p>Internships and residency opportuniti
 es were limited for non-white medical school graduates at that time. Homer 
 G. Philips Hospital\, opened in 1937 as a segregated hospital\, was the onl
 y hospital in St. Louis offering learning opportunities and clinical experi
 ence to African-American doctors. Nash began a rotating internship there in
  1945\, working on twelve services in one year. A three-year residency in p
 ediatrics followed. In 1949 she was the only woman among the first four Afr
 ican-American physicians invited to join the staff of the Washington Univer
 sity School of Medicine. As a pediatrician\, Nash became a member of the ho
 use staff of St. Louis Children’s Hospital.</p><p>Nash served for over 40 y
 ears on the clinical faculty of Washington University School of Medicine an
 d on the attending staff at St. Louis Children’s Hospital. At the same time
 \, she maintained a thriving private practice. In addition\, she served as 
 pediatric supervisor and associate director of Pediatrics at Homer G. Phill
 ips Hospital from 1950 to 1964. Nash served as president of the St. Louis C
 hildren’s Hospital attending staff from 1977 to 1979. Nash was long recogni
 zed in the St. Louis community for her commitment to excellence\, tireless 
 advocacy on behalf of children\, and endless enthusiasm for the field of me
 dicine. Nash is best known for her work as an advocate for children. By vis
 iting “preemie” units in other hospitals around the country\, she developed
  a designated ward for premature infants that was cleaner and included air 
 conditioning and individual bassinets\, and provided improved training for

 en\, Helen and Homer\, brought them to St. Louis and forever changed this c
 ity for the better. Dr. Helen Nash did her residency at Homer G. Phillips H
 ospital and was made supervisor of pediatrics the minute she finished her t
 raining. She transformed care at that hospital and in 1949 became the first
  African American woman to join the attending staff at St. Louis Children’s
  Hospital\, where she helped develop one of the first specialized wards for
  premature infants.</p><p>She fought to get the best care for her patients 
 — and for basic recognition of their humanity. Helen was also one of the fi
 rst four African American physicians on the clinical faculty of Washington 
 University School of Medicine and later served as acting dean of minority a
 ffairs for three years  after her retirement from practice. She paved the w
 ay for others to follow her\, creating a scholarship for St. Louis kids loo
 king to pursue careers in medicine.</p><p>Dr. Homer E. Nash Jr. served in t
 he U.S. Army in Italy during World War II and received a Purple Heart and a
  Bronze Star. When he returned\, he went to medical school in Nashville and
  then moved to St. Louis to train under his sister at Homer G. Phillips.</p
 ><p>The Nash family has shown us what it means to take seriously the health
  and specific needs of all members of our community. Nash Way will honor th
 is extraordinary family and serve as a permanent testimonial of their servi
 ce.</p><p>In February\, the city approved a measure renaming Children's Pla
 ce – between Euclid Avenue on the west to Taylor Avenue on the east -- as N
 ash Way\, to celebrate the accomplishments and cultural impact of Dr. Helen
  Nash on the St. Louis region.</p><p>Free validated parking is available in
