        The Hamilton General Hospital Training School for Nurses was established at City Hospital in 1890. It was initially a two-year-long apprenticeship style program led by the head nurse and physicians, but expanded to a three-year program involving formal instruction and on-the-job training. The Hamilton General Hospital School of Nursing was discontinued in 1973 when Mohawk College took over the program.
