Virginia's Confederate Military Hospitals

Introduction

The late 20th century understanding of Civil War era medicine is weak at best, with some execptions. Injuries and diseases which are today minor annoyances were in the 1860's often fatal. The Union and Confederate military organizations expended large amounts of resources on hospitals and medical care for their men, but often to little avail. I have provided some links to Civil War medical sites. There isn't much available on this topic.

This list is intended to identify as many stationary hospitals and the periods they were in service. Field hospitals with the Army of Northern Virginia are exceedingly difficult to track, and were used only to stabalize wounded men. When they were able they were transferred to one of the stationary hospitals.
