历史
Dr. Jacob Edwin Brouse was an early New Denver physician, and graduate of McGill University. His father and sons were all also doctors. In 1895 he moved to New Denver, British Columbia, where he opened the communities first hospital. In 1896 he became a coroner for the Slocan Mining division of West Kootenay electoral district. In 1897 he built the Slocan Hospital, which remained in use until the 1980s. By 1917, he left New Denver, passing in 1925, but not before leaving his name and legacy throughout the area. The town of Brouse is named for him, as well as Brouse Lodge, an independent living facility built on the site of his hospital. Two biographies have been written about Dr. Brouse: “Early Years: Dr. J.E. Brouse & his Slocan Hospital” by G.H von Krogh, 2023, and “New Denver’s frontier doctor: Doctor Jacob Edwin Brouse, 1868-1925” by John Brighton, 1984.
