Florence Nightingale (1820-1910), British nurse and hospital reformer became internationally known as the founder of modern nursing. Nursing, which before her time was considered low-grade unskilled labor, became a respected profession because of her efforts.

Born in Florence, Italy, on May 12, 1820, Nightingale was raised mostly in Derbyshire, England, and received a thorough classical education from her father. From 1837 to 1839 she traveled with her parents in Europe, and the suffering she saw aroused an interest in nursing. She visited hospitals whenever possible. In 1849 she traveled in Italy, Greece, and Egypt, and in 1850 stopped in Germany to visit the hospital and school for deaconesses at Kaiserswerth, near Düsseldorf, Germany.

Nightingale returned to England determined to study nursing despite the disapproval of her parents. The following year she studied for several months at the nursing institution at Kaiserswerth. In 1853 she became superintendent of the Hospital for Invalid Gentlewomen, a small private hospital in London.



After the Crimean War broke out in 1854, Nightingale was stirred by newspaper reports about the primitive sanitation methods and grossly inadequate nursing facilities at the large British barracks-hospital at Üsküdar (now part of İstanbul, Turkey). She dispatched a letter to the British minister of war, volunteering her services in Crimea. At the same time, unaware of her action, the minister of war proposed that she assume direction of all nursing operations at the war front.

Nightingale set out for Üsküdar accompanied by 38 Roman Catholic and Anglican sisters and lay nurses. They found that the military hospitals lacked supplies, the wounded soldiers were unwashed and filthy, and diseases such as typhus, cholera, and dysentery were rampant. Under Nightingale’s supervision, efficient nursing departments were established at Üsküdar and later at Balaklava in Crimea. Through her tireless efforts the death rate among the sick and the wounded was greatly reduced. Nightingale became a national hero and was called the Lady with the Lamp and the Angel of the Crimea. Although Nightingale contracted a severe illness in the Crimea in 1855, she stayed with her hospital until the end of the war in 1856.

Returning to England when the war was over, Nightingale immediately began to reorganize the army medical service. She helped hospitals acquire proper ventilation and drainage systems and select competent, properly trained orderlies. She also introduced meticulous hospital record keeping and had an army medical school established. With a public fund raised in tribute to her services in the Crimea, Nightingale founded the Nightingale School and Home for Nurses at Saint Thomas’s Hospital in London. The opening of this school marked the beginning of professional education in nursing.

Florence Nightingale’s contributions to the evolution of nursing as a profession were invaluable. Before she undertook her reforms, nurses were largely untrained personnel who considered their job a menial chore; through her efforts the stature of nursing was raised to a medical profession with high standards of education and important responsibilities. The graduates of her school soon started nursing schools in other hospitals, and the movement for training nurses spread rapidly. Her advice was continually sought, not only on nursing matters, but also on hospital construction and management and on every aspect of public health.

Nightingale received many honors from foreign governments and in 1907 became the first woman to receive the British Order of Merit. She died in London on August 13, 1910. In 1915 the Crimean Monument in Waterloo Place, London, was erected in her honor. Her writings include Notes on Nursing (1860), the first textbook for nurses, which was translated into many languages. Among her other writings are Notes on Hospitals (1859) and Notes on Nursing for the Labouring Classes (1861)

“War Is Kind”
by Stephen Crane
Do not weep, maiden, for war is kind.
Because your lover threw wild hands toward the sky
And the affrighted steed ran on alone,
Do not weep.
War is kind.

Hoarse, booming drums of the regiment,
Little souls who thirst for fight,
These men were born to drill and die.
The unexplained glory files above them,
Great is the battle-god, great, and his kingdom—
A field where a thousand corpses lie.

Do not weep, babe, for war is kind.
Because your father tumbled in the yellow trenches,
Raged at his breast, gulped and died,
Do not weep.
War is kind.

Swift blazing flag of the regiment,
Eagle with crest of red and gold,
These men were born to drill and die.
Point for them the virtue of the slaughter,
Make plain to them the excellence of killing
And a field where a thousand corpses lie.

Mother whose heart hung humble as a button
On the bright splendid shroud of your son,
Do not weep.
War is kind.

“Mending Wall”
by Robert Frost
Something there is that doesn’t love a wall,
That sends the frozen-ground-swell under it,
And spills the upper boulders in the sun,
And makes gaps even two can pass abreast.
The work of hunters is another thing:
I have come after them and made repair
Where they have left not one stone on a stone,
But they would have the rabbit out of hiding,
To please the yelping dogs. The gaps I mean,
No one has seen them made or heard them made,
But at spring mending-time we find them there.
I let my neighbor know beyond the hill;
And on a day we meet to walk the line
And set the wall between us once again.
We keep the wall between us as we go.
To each the boulders that have fallen to each.
And some are loaves and some so nearly balls
We have to use a spell to make them balance:
“Stay where you are until our backs are turned!”
We wear our fingers rough with handling them.
Oh, just another kind of out-door game,
One on a side. It comes to little more:
There where it is we do not need the wall:
He is all pine and I am apple orchard.
My apple trees will never get across
And eat the cones under his pines, I tell him.
He only says, “Good fences make good neighbors.”
Spring is the mischief in me, and I wonder
If I could put a notion in his head:
“Why do they make good neighbors? Isn’t it
Where there are cows?
But here there are no cows.
Before I built a wall I’d ask to know
What I was walling in or walling out,
And to whom I was like to give offence.
Something there is that doesn’t love a wall,
That wants it down.” I could say “Elves” to him,
But it’s not elves exactly, and I’d rather
He said it for himself. I see him there
Bringing a stone grasped firmly by the top
In each hand, like an old-stone savage armed.
He moves in darkness as it seems to me—
Not of woods only and the shade of trees.
He will not go behind his father’s saying,
And he likes having thought of it so well
He says again, “Good fences make good neighbors.”
