T-Z Subjects: A-E F-L M-Z Nightingale, Florence (1820-1910) Famous as the mother of modern nursing, Florence Nightingale has often been depicted as a selfless and fairly bland do-gooder. In reality, she was a tough, even ruthless, reformer who took on many of the most powerful institutions of her time and fought passionately for her right to a career and an individual identity in the stifling atmosphere of Victorian England. Nightingale refused to be pushed into any of the limited roles (wife, mother, social ornament) available to middle class women of the time. Instead, she carved out a significant role for herself, and, in the process, paved the way for professional nursing as a career choice for women all over the world. Sponsor Message. Nightingale was born on May 12, 1820, to wealthy English parents who named her after her birthplace, Florence, Italy. She received a classical education from her father, who taught her Greek, Latin, history, and mathematics at home. Early in life, she became convinced that her calling in life was caring for the sick. Her family was horrified by this revelation, since nursing was considered an occupation for lower class women, who were believed to be generally drunken and slovenly. Nightingale persisted, however, and in 1850 she began to study nursing in Egypt, Germany, and France. In 1853, she was rewarded with an unpaid job, supervising a women's hospital in London.

Heritage > Famous Britons Florence Nightingale Born: 1820 Died: 1910 Think of caring people and you think of nurses. Think of a nurse and you think of Florence Nightingale. Think of Florence Nightingale and you think of the Lady with the Lamp. Few pictures of caring for others are so ingrained in the imagination of the Western World. The story of Florence Nightingale is a story of personal courage, of perseverance, and of responsibility and care for those in greatest need. It is also the story of how one individual can make a difference when bureaucratic insensitivity and indifference seems to make change impossible. Such appeared to be the case with battle casualties when Britain and France went to war with Russia in 1854. The theatre of war was in southern Russia, on the Crimean peninsula, bordering the Black Sea. The wounded soldiers were, where possible, ferried to the military hospital at Scutari on the Turkish coast. Conditions in this so-called hospital were appalling. It lacked even the most basic facilities. The lack of beds, for example, meant that the best the wounded soldiers could hope for was a to be laid on the floor wrapped in a blanket. Rats ran amongst the dying. Such was the absence of care that, on occasion, even dead bodies were forgotten about and left to rot. There were few army doctors or medical staff and no nurses amongst the vast hospital complex. Florence Nightingale was later to reckon the buildings could hold four miles of beds! Of course, there was nothing particularly new about such conditions in a military hospital at a time of war. Nevertheless, Britain's French allies were providing much better treatment for their wounded. Catholic nuns nursed the French wounded with a degree of care and discipline unknown to the British.

Entries Publication Data Maps Contributors ... World Civilizations Reader's Companion to Military History Nightingale, Florence British Crimean War Nurse Reports in The Times from the Crimean War (1854-1856) and the British Hospital at Scutari painted a terrible picture of suffering endured by sick and wounded troops and urged the dispatch of nurses. Through personal connections, Florence Nightingale, who had no training in nursing or hospital administration, secured control of the nurses and the funds sent to comfort the British army. Her formidable self-confidence and powers of persuasion secured her position. Nightingale's efforts at Scutari were quickly turned into popular legend by the newspapers, as an antithesis to the apparent incompetence of the military authorities. However, the bulk of all nursing, as it is understood today, was provided by male orderlies, restricting the nurses to cooking, cleaning, and spiritual comfort for the dying. Manipulative, determined, and self-promoting, Nightingale rarely allowed the truth to interfere with her work. Her object was power and reputation; nursing was only the means to that end. Her real contribution to saving lives was the result of the superior order, cleanliness, and feeding she imposed. After the war she campaigned for improved sanitation in army barracks and in India, and in particular popularized nursing, once considered a menial chore, into an honored vocation. Nightingale made an important contribution to care for the wounded and sick, and if she was never "the Lady with the lamp" of popular myth, she did raise the national consciousness and establish the role of the nurse in modern medicine.

Florence Nightingale Nurse, improved hospital conditions (1820-1910) When Florence lived, hospitals in England were unsanitary places where disease could spread easily. Florence wanted to help change this, and even though her parents did not approve, she traveled to Germany to learn more about nursing. Florence became responsible for all of the hospitals in the war zone during the Crimean War. She trained nurses and cleaned up the hospitals. Florence greatly improved the quality of care that soldiers received. She returned to England and started the Nightingale School and Home for Nurses, and helped improve hospital conditions in India and England. Florence wrote books on nursing and hospital design, emphasizing the need for organization, cleanliness and compassion for the sick.
