Document:
Jeanne Quint Benoliel (born in National City, CA, Dec 9, 1919- died January, 2012) was Professor Emeritus of Psychosocial and Community Health at the University of Washington, School of Nursing. She received a diploma in 1941 from St. Luke’s Hospital School of Nursing in San Francisco, and her B.S. in Nursing Education from Oregon State University, in Corvallis in 1948. In 1969 she acquired the D.N.SC. in Sociology and Nursing from the University of California in San Francisco.
Benoliel served in the United States Army Nurse Corps from 1934-1946, spending 21 months in various parts of New Guinea and the Philippines. Following her Army service she held several nursing positions in Oregon and California including staff nurse, surgical nursing instructor and educational director. During the 1960s, Benoliel was a faculty member at the University of California, first in Los Angeles than in San Francisco. In 1970 she joined the faculty of the University of Washington, School of Nursing as an Associate Professor. She went on to become Professor and Department Chair. She was a member of the Planning Committee for the Ph.D. program in Nursing Science and initiated a funded study of patterns of dying in hospitals (1973-1977).
She was active in many nursing professional organizations at the national and state levels. Benoliel was one of the first members of the Commission on Nursing of the American Nurses Association. This Commission helped create the infrastructure through which nurse investigators could meet, offer programs and exchange information. Benoliel was also an early member, and chair for two years, of the International Working Group on Death, Dying and Bereavement. The IWG DDB sought to promote and advance death education and research and evaluating the care of the ill, survivors, and the bereaved. Through this and other activities, Benoliel was an important force in organizing nursing’s growth as a profession.
Benoliel authored numerous articles and books on nursing care of cancer and terminally ill patients. Her many awards, honors and special recognitions include the Professional Achievement Award from the University of California Alumni Association, Los Angeles (1972); election into the American Academy of Nursing (1974); receipt of the Doctor of Science from the University of Pennsylvania for contributions in the field of Thanatology (1983), and the Doctor of Humane Letters from the University of San Diego, California (1987); and receipt of the American Journal of Nursing Book of the Year Award (1988).
The Jeanne Quint Benoliel Papers is a collection acquired by the University of Pennsylvania, Barbara Bates Center for the Study of the History of Nursing between 1999 and 2012. The materials, arranged in fourteen series, help sheds light on her prolific professional career in nursing scholarship as well as her personal life.
Series 1 contains Dr. Benoliel’s personal documents, including her yearbooks from high school and nurse training school, personal correspondence, as well as her passports. This section also gives a glimpse into her professional life through her curriculum vitaes and biographical sketches. Her journals, mostly focusing on her work trips, also have insights into her personal life. These journals can be found in series 5 and 9. Series 2, however, focus on her early career from nursing training, her years in Army during World War II, as well her positions after the war, before joining the University of California faculty. Documents include her military files, correspondence received during the war, course notes and graduation notes. Series 3 explores her early academic career and includes her course notes, yearbooks and reunion information from her class or the classes she taught while at St. Luke’s Hospital and Fresno County General Hospital, as well as correspondence and reports gathered during her tenure at the University of California at San Francisco (UCSF) and at Los Angeles (UCLA).
The fourth series contains materials related to Jeanne Quint Benoliel’s grant projects during her time at UC. This includes the project on chronic disease in adolescence that led to her dissertation “Becoming Diabetic: A Study of Emerging Identity.” Documents include correspondence, grant applications, original field notes, personal observations, original interviews, patient data, summary reports and findings. Grant projects include “Exploratory Investigation of Process of Adjustment Following Mastectomy”, “Hospital Personnel, Nursing Care and Dying Patients”, and “Terminal Illness, Family Adaptation, and Medical and Nursing Care”.
The fifth series explores Dr. Benoliel’s tenure at the University of Washington until her retirement in 1980. Divided into two subseries, the first subgrouping includes her yearly activity reports, correspondence, and other professional activities. The second and larger subseries focus on the research projects conducted during her tenure, as primary, co-leader, or secondary role on the project. Documents within each grant project may include the original grants, grant renewals and reports, correspondence, interviews and data, as well as papers and publications based on the project. These grant projects include “Care-Cure Problem: Dying in Teaching Hospitals”, “Health Services Pre-Professional Training for Minorities”, and Oncology Transition Services’ “Pre-Master’s Program in Oncology Transition Services” and “Oncology Transition Services for Children and Adults”.
Series six documents her more serious involvement in professional organizations.

This section contains the various documents created during the research projects Dr. Benoliel was a part of during her time at the University of California. This includes the project on chronic disease in adolescence that led to her dissertation “Becoming Diabetic: A Study of Emerging Identity.” Documents within the subseries can include the original grant, correspondence, field notes, personal observations, original interviews, paper and publications, and other materials generated during the course of the project.
Series 4.1. “Exploratory Investigation of Process of Adjustment Following Mastectomy” (hereafter Mastectomy Study) from National Institute of Mental Health, US Public Health Service #m-5495,, 1961-1963 .
This section is the first of several research grants Dr. Benoliel was associated with. The Mastectomy study was conducted by Lulu Wolf and JQB at UCLA and used patients at UCLA Medical Center where Benoliel worked part-time as a nurse. This study explored the adjustment women faced after a radical mastectomy with the loss of a breast, the symbol of femininity, the invasion of cancer and the treatment for it, and the disfigurement of the body and psyche and its effect on everyday life. The team investigated the process of adjustment of patients during their hospital stay and through the first year of postop. Interviews were conducted by JQB or her research assistant (primarily Lucille Agee and Marilyn Howe, amongst others) in participants’ home to gather data, which was used alongside doctor, surgeon, and family interviews, and investigator observations. Interviews with patients explored how the tumor was discovered, fear of pain pre and post-surgery, appetite and mood changes, clothing choices, preferences and coping with the loss of a breast, thoughts on their personal appearance, commentary on hospital stay and nurse/doctor interactions, and what the patients have learned before surgery compared to the reality of it. The team also inquired about patients’ depression, social activities and personal relationships between family, friends, and husbands, the scar and their coping or acceptance (or lack thereof) it. Also included in this series are preliminary interviews done with patients who ultimately had only biopsies or declined being in the study.
Fieldnotes are also included in this series. Those documents focus on the team member's personal observations on the patient, the family, the interviews in general, and the on goings of the project.

This section of the collection contains the records related to the Dying Patient study conducted by Anselm Strauss, an American sociologist, internationally known as a medical sociologist (especially for his pioneering attention to chronic illness and dying), along with Barney Glaser, the co-developer of grounded theory, an innovative method of qualitative analysis widely used in sociology, nursing, education, social work, and organizational studies, and Benoliel as an associated investigator (then Jeanne C. Quint) in 1962 after finish her Mastectomy study. The research interviews and field observations were conducted between 1961 and 1963, with a grant renewal in 1964 for three years to focus on analyzing the data and writing reports and data for publications. The study explored the nature of dying in hospitals, focusing on nursing care, as terminal care in hospitals “border on being virtually non-existent.” A sub-study of student nurses’ encounters with dying patients was carried out largely through intensive interviews with students and faculty at 3 different types of nursing schools.
JQB’s notes are quite broad, ranging from her own experience as a nurse; observations of social world of nurses on the hospital floor; extreme conscious of the “hierarchy system” of relationships between doctors and nurses, and senior nurses and instructors vis a vis the student nurses, amongst other personal notes on being the outsider on the research team. Other documents include, original interviews, data, reports, conference papers and other publications.

Series 4.3. “Terminal Illness, Family Adaptation, and Medical and Nursing Care” (hereafter Chronic Disease in Adolescence),, Nov 1964-1969 . see word doc for ok folders.
This subseries contains the materials related to the Chronic Disease in Adolescence. This grant project (also contains other grant proposals related to the overall investigation in children and disease) eventually became part of Benoliel’s dissertation on diabetes. The diabetes project questioned: “How do people actually go about living with chronic diseases, especially individuals with limited financial resources living in an urban area? How do these people fit in and make use of the city’s system of health facilities—both private and public?” This study concerned itself with several variables including: effect of living arrangements on management of disease; types of medical management required by the disease process; more diffuse medical management; effect of the disease on previous ways of living: treatments causing person to make drastic changes in social life, jobs, etc.
Chronic disease in adolescence projects explores the family dynamics when a child has a chronic condition. “When a young person is found to have an illness, the doctor usually prescribes regular treatments or special routines to be carried out at home. This project is aimed at understanding how the person and his family fit the doctor’s recommendations into their own daily routines of living. From this study it is hoped to obtain information which doctors and nurses can use in helping other young people in similar circumstances. You are being asked to participate in this project and to sign the attached consent form. …To obtain a family picture of the effects of illness at home, the investigator needs to talk informally and separately with each member of the household. Each interview is considered confidential, and the information obtained would not be shared with other members of the family.” This project was carried out through fieldwork and intensive interviewing. Anthropological style fieldwork which is a combination of intensive observation along with informal but directed interviewing. Fieldwork supplemented by formal, focused interviewing, by questionnaire. As a result, this section contains numerous field notes and formal interviews as well correspondence and papers, including her dissertation. The folders in this section largely remain in the original order created by Dr. Benoliel.

Series 5.2. Research Grant Files.
This subseries contains the materials generated during the research grant projects Dr. Benoliel was associated with. Each grant project is a subgroup, with documents ranging from grant applications to correspondence to fieldnotes to final reports.
Note, the grant projects included here are only for her tenure at the University of Washington (c. 1970-1980). Any project before 1970, see Series 4. Research Studies Files, and any project post retirement in 1980, see Series 9. Emeritus Files.
Series 5.2-1. "Care-Cure Problem: Dying in Teaching Hospitals" (hereafter Care/Cure), supported by a grant from the Division of Nursing, DHEW Grant # M11463,, 1973-1977.
The Care-Cure project, that Benoliel was the principal investigator on, was a retrospective analysis of patients’ records for the purpose of describing, classifying, and comparing patterns of dying in teaching hospitals for 3 periods of time: 1960-61; 1965-66; 1970-71. The data used were on descriptive variables of time, place, person, and cause of death to be transcribed from patients’ records on to special data collection forms and ultimately to IBM cards for computer processing and statistical analysis. It involved no direct patient contact but required consent forms granting access to patient records attached (signed by Executive Directors of hospitals participating in the study – Univ. of Washington, Harborview Medical Center (University Hospital); and Medical Director of Swedish Hospital Medical Center. The instruments utilized for collecting the prescribed sets of data from the records contain only the assigned study numbers to protect the privacy of the persons concerned.
The study explored the phenomenon that more people are dying in hospitals. Using the Glaser and Strauss model, the concept of dying trajectory – serves as a useful starting point for identifying the boundaries necessary to an examination of dying as an ordinary hospital event. Trajectory has 2 outstanding properties: duration (takes place over time); and shape – i.e., the picture created by the trajectory as it is plotted across the dimension of time.—i.e, rapid downward course; steady, regular movement downhill; vacillation; plateaus, etc. The definition of dying trajectory in each case begins with the patient’s actual death in the hospital, and the analysis if performed utilizing retrospective data from the patient’s chart and other hospital records.

Series 5.2-2. “Health Services Pre-Professional Training for Minorities” (hereafter Pre-Professional Training for Minorities), DHEW, Public Health Services Grant 5D18 MB and 10020-03, [also contains “Comparative Nursing Care System” (hereafter CNCS) which are intermingled in the original files], 1975-1978 .
The Comparative Nursing Care System and the Training for Minorities folders remain in the original order that Dr. Benoliel created. They are intermingled and remain so as the two groups’ documents and content are closely related. All folders are labeled as they originally were by JQB.
Dr. Benoliel was Professor and Chairman of the Comparative Nursing Care Systems at that time and was the Training for Minorities program co-director and faculty sponsor. The Training for Minorities was a “program to prepare select minority students for health science professions”. Due to some minority students’ desire to work in the health sciences but not prepared for university science courses, additional staff was requested to aid them in study skills, tutoring, and counseling. In addition, there was more effort to expose the program to “health profession faculty, programs and clinics to increase the poll of qualified” students. The program focused on assisting students to obtain the study skills, knowledge about the various health science professions and career goals, and helping them cope with personal and academic problems. The rationale was that some minority students who meet the admission criteria have difficulty in academic classes and expectations, making it difficult for them to enter into the health profession.

This subgroup focuses on the materials generated during two grant programs that developed further the Oncology Transition Services between 1977 and 1984. The first grant sponsored the “Pre-Master’s Program” and very partially sponsored the second grant for “Children and Adults”. Transitional Services are person-centered services to assist patients with advance cancer or diseases to cope constructively with the physical and social dependencies imposed by the disease and the treatments as well as the changing life goals associated with the progression towards death. This service provided by professional nurses is to ease the patient and his/her family throughout the progression of the disease and the health care settings through continual care while protecting the patient’s right to decide on the path treatment. Documents include grants, reports, curriculum development, correspondences and other material generated during the grant.

The purpose of the “Pre-Master’s Program” was to expand the Master’s Degree Programs by developing, implementing, and evaluating a new pathway to the MA program. In doing so, the team created ten videotapes showing key elements of Oncology Transition Services for teaching and learning and later evaluate their success and the possibility of offering the program to a class larger than ten students. The team devised the course and through weekly meetings evaluated the progress of the course, teachers, and students as well as created a recruitment plan for the future. Materials within this subgroup include weekly activity reports, curriculum courses, videotape materials and official reports.

“Oncology Transition Services for Children and Adults” was a project designed to expand the Master’s degree program to prepare professional nurses for leadership through a community-based service for children and adults with advanced, fatal diseases. This course pathway would replace a previous program in the second year of the grant. The new program was organized around 1) how to work with and care for advanced cancer patients and their families; 2) how to administer and manage community-based services for children and adults with advance cancer living at home; and 3) knowledge about death and dying as an influence on the human experience on the individual, family dynamics, communication, child-rearing, and the organization of terminal care services. This course was to teach nurses about clinical strategies for terminal care while learning the skills of care and facing the professional and personal effects of death and dying. Materials include original grants, enrollment, data and coding forms and analysis.

This professional organization’s purpose was to aid in developing the field of death, dying and bereavement, with particular emphasis on working with people involved in death education as well as those involved with the health and care of the terminally ill, survivors and the bereaved. In addition, the IWG DDB sought to promote research and evaluation of those areas and other areas related to death, dying, and bereavement. This involved holding meetings, being an active catalyst in the development of the field, promoting and encouraging knowledge, and having an international perspective. Membership into the IWG was only extended to those who were leaders in their field through scholarship, practice or professional responsibility. Dr. Benoliel chaired the organization from 1982-1985. The subseries contain the minutes, correspondence, membership guidelines, and other activities by the organization. Also included are conference materials, correspondence, and other documents related to organizing the conference or travel arrangements.

Series 9.2-1. “A Course on Prevention, Focusing on Cancer, For Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants” (hereafter Cancer Prevention Course) National Cancer Institute, # N01-CN-95483,, 1979-1984 .
The project goal was “to develop a course on cancer prevention for NPs [nurse practitioners] and PAs [physician assistants].” The focus of the courses was to teach professionals on how to use preventative health approaches to clinical practice, to apply those approaches to cancer prevention, and to critically evaluate new research findings. This project sought to bridge the gap between education and knowledge about preventative measures against cancer and unhealthy habits (cigarette smoking and alcohol consumption, etc.) and effectively changing human behavior to lessen the risks imposed by those habits. In addition, screening programs for cancer (mammograms, pap smear, etc.) were not often in practice as health professionals (NPs and PAs) have little if any knowledge, training, or experience with new techniques. This project aimed to train and educate NPs and PAs in preventative measures against cancer.

This study was based on interviews of lung cancer patients and heart disease patients and their reactions to having health problems. The overall objective of the study was “to develop a valid and reliable methodology to determine how successful patients cope with one or two chronic diseases and its consequences. It compared the characteristics of patients who coped well with advanced disease to those who were not coping well with confronting the disease and its impact on the individual, personal relationships and social dynamics.

This grant project explored the stresses and stress factors reported by graduate student nurses in general as to whether or not they were similar to stresses and stress factors reported during a previous research on stress and Oncology Transition Services students. OTS students reported stress linked to personal, educational, and clinical sources. This project focused on correlating student responses on demographic variables, background characteristics and type of graduate program with the stress check list instrument as well as responses to other stress list and survey instruments over the course of their graduate program.

On this grant project, Ruth McCorkle was the primary investigator and Dr. Benoliel was the co-investigator. The study investigated the effects of three different cancer management programs on psychosocial responses and coping effectiveness. To study those effects, the team randomly assigned lung cancer patients to either office care regimen, a standard home care regimen, or an oncology home care regimen. Data was collected every six weeks over a period of six months on participants’ level of symptom distress, social dependency, current concerns, mood changes, satisfaction with care, etc. After data collection, the investigators identified the common and specific effects of the three different regimens on the psychosocial responses and coping effectiveness of participants. Patients who died before the study was over, the spouse was given a closing interview and an optional offer to be a part of another grant study, “A Prospective and Concurrent Study of Spouse Bereavement.” (See Series 9 for that project).

This grant funding was used to create a program at the University of Washington to support training nurses in psychology oncology at the predoctoral and postdoctoral level. Dr. Benoliel assumed the responsibilities of Program Director in January 1986. For the program’s purpose, psychology oncology referred to “cancer research that was concerned with the study of emotional health and illness as these are influenced by cultural, psychological, sociological, interpersonal, intrapsychic, physiological, and/or environmental circumstances”. The program would train nurses on applying theoretical and research method to psychology oncology using statistical procedures as well as computerized or other methods of data compilation and analysis.

The purpose of this study was “to compare data obtained from spouses before a patient’s death, with data obtained after the death. The aim is to document the impact of illness and death on the survivor’s health, their relationship with others, and the subsequent changes in their roles and activities.” Using standardized instruments and semi-structured interviews, the team gathered information from the spouse about symptoms, health perceptions, relationships, and bereavement. The data provides insight into the changes surviving spouses go through before and after death of a loved one from a serious illness. The interviews were conducted every six weeks for up 25 months. This study used the spouses of patients who were enrolled in another study, “Evaluation of Cancer Management”, but died before the six months of the other project was over.
