AB  - Though  hospitals  have  existed  since  late  antiquity,  the  concept  of  the  hospital  as  we  know  it  today  did  not  begin  to  take  shape  until  the  eighteenth  century  in  Europe.1  These  early  hospitals  served  a  variety  of  purposes,  including  caring  for  the  indigent  and  isolating  contagious  diseases  like  leprosy  and  tuberculosis.  Unfortunately,  with  medicine  still  more  an  art  than  science,  there  just  wasn't  a  lot  that  could  be  done  for  most  of  these  patients.  People  generally  thought  of  hospitals  as  places  where  one  went  to  die.
