>From
memory
the
original
Rotorua
Hospital
was
built
for
the
servicemen
recuperation
WW1
and
was
a
TB
hospital
with
open
rooms
for
the
miracle
cure
of
fresh
air.
Those
wards
were
still
in
use
when
I
was
nursing
during
the
60s
and
70s.
The
'taking
the
waters'
would
more
likely
have
been
at
the
Queen
Elizabeth
Hospital
down
on
the
Lake
