#டாக்டர் ஐடா ஸ்கடர் 150வது பிறந்தநாள் சி.எம்.சி மருத்துவமனை# Dr.Ida Sophia Scudder (December 9, 1870 – May 23, 1960) was a third generation American medical missionary in India. She dedicated her life to the plight of Indian women and the fight against bubonic plague, cholera & leprosy. In 1918, she started one of Asia's foremost teaching hospitals, the Christian Medical College & Hospital, Vellore, INDIA. Ida was born to Dr.John Scudder and his wife, Sophia part of a long line of medical missionaries that started with Ida's grandfather, Rev. Dr.John Scudder Sr. They were all the members of the Reformed Church in America. Growing up as a child in India, Ida witnessed famine, poverty and disease. Ida initially expected to get married and settle down and to have a family in the United States after seminary. In 1890, Ida went back to India to help her father when her mother was ailing at the mission bungalow at Tindivanam in the Madras Province. Ida had earlier expressed a resolve not to become a doctor or a medical missionary. But during her stay in India after her return from the US, she had a life-changing experience one night when she witnessed the death of three women who died during childbirth and was unable to help them during the trauma. These women did not want to be treated by male doctors due to their orthodox customs. As there were no female gynaecologists or even a female general physician, these three women could not be treated properly and therefore died. Witnessing the death of women due to lack of a female doctor convinced Ida scudder that God wanted her to become a female physician to help women of India. She never married and stayed single throughout her life to fulfil her mission. In 1899, She graduated from Cornell Medical College, New York City as part of the first class that accepted women as medical students. She then headed back to India, fortified with a $10,000 grant. With this money, Ida started a tiny medical dispensary and clinic for women at Vellore, 75 miles from Madras. Her father died in 1900, soon after she arrived in India. In two years, she treated 5,000 patients. In 1902 Ida opened the Mary Taber Schell Hospital realizing that it would be impractical to go on alone in her fight to bring better healthcare to South India's women, she decided to open a medical school for girls only. Her decision was viewed doubted by some and it was told that that Ida would have consider herself lucky even if she got at least three women applicants. On the contrary, Ida got 151 applications the first year (1918) and had to turn many away subsequently. At first, the Reformed Church in America was the main backer of the Vellore school, but after Dr.Ida Scudder agreed to make it coeducational, it eventually gained the support of 40 missions. Of the 242 students today, 95 are men. In 1928, ground was broken for the "Hill site" medical school campus on 200 acres (0.8 km²) at Bagayam, Vellore. In 1928, Mahatma Gandhi visited the medical school. She travelled a number of times to the United States to raise funds for the college and hospital, raising a total in the millions. In 1945, the college was opened to men as well as women. Dr.Ida, won the Elizabeth Blackwell Citation from the New York Eye and Ear Infirmary as one of 1952's five outstanding women doctors. In 1960, May 23rd Dr.Ida Scudder aged 89, died at her kodaikanal bungalow and buried in Tollgate cemetery Vellore. In 1960, Rajendra Prasad, then the President of India, while inaugurating the jubilee celebrations of the Christian Medical College, paid rich tributes to the late Dr. Ida Scudder and hailed her as a “great lady”. In 2003 the Vellore Christian Medical Centre was the largest Christian hospital in the world, with 2000 beds, and its medical school is now one of the premier medical colleges in India.
