About
Documentary about the Frontier Nursing Service, founded in 1925 to bring medical and dental care by horseback to Kentucky’s isolated mountain communities. In The Forgotten Frontier , which was shot near Wendover, Kentucky, locals reenact moments when frontier nurses came to their aid. The film shows the nurse assisting in childbirth, inoculating schoolchildren, and transporting a shooting victim to a doctor for emergency surgery. Note: Selected for the National Film Registry. Mary Marvin Breckenridge was originally employed by the service. Later in 1931, she produced the promotional film She Goes to Vassar .
