• EWP 4-5 Preventorium
  In the early 20th century, the concept of a preventorium emerged as a form of preventive care for children threatened with tuberculosis or other potential disabilities. Initially developed in Canada and later in New York City, preventoria were institutions focused on providing protective care to children exposed to tuberculosis or coming from tuberculosis households. These institutions evolved over time, incorporating fresh air schools, open window rooms, and day camps to increase resistance to disease. Standards and definitions for preventoria varied, with some institutions being 24-hour care facilities while others operated as day schools with partial supervision. By the early 20th century, the main goal of preventoria was to train children in healthy living habits and prevent future health issues, particularly pulmonary tuberculosis. The merging of preventoria and fresh air schools led to variations in procedures and equipment, ultimately aiming to give children at risk of illness an extra boost towards a healthier future.
