The Notes on Nursing is the revolutionary book by one of the founders of "modern medicine." Although Florence Nightingale was ridiculed for her views and approach by many contemporaries, including prominent doctors of her times, she stood her ground. She saved many lives from unnecessary death of hospital infection. Florence Nightingale first started demanding that all the surgical instruments were boiled and the rooms ventilated. She collected and summed up her views in a 74-page brochure of notes on nursing, in which she described the role of clean water, air, food, and beds, as well as the cleanliness of hospital personnel for patient recovery.
Autoren-Porträt von Florence Nightingale
Florence Nightingale (1820-1910) was a British social reformer and a founder of modern nursing. She also contributed to the development of statistics as a science. Florence Nightingale was born to a wealthy family belonging to the higher social classes and received spectacular home education. She knew several European languages and excelled at mathematics. Yet, the military life was of little interest to her, and at the age of 17, she decided to dedicate her life to nursing. She started her nursing career helping poor people in the village near her estate. She spent a lot of time educating herself and received formal education at the Institution of Protestant Deaconesses at Kaiserswerth in Germany. After she worked as a superintendent of a hospital in London and continued her career in Turkey, nursing the wounded officers in the Crimean War, there she started introducing her revolutionary ideas on nursing and laid the fundamental of infographics, as she virtually used statistical data to prove the productivity of her methods. Upon returning to London, she established the first in the world nursing school at St Thomas' Hospital and was actively pursuing social change. International nursing day is celebrated on Nightingale's birthday.
