Independent Work: Florence NightingaleFlorence Nightingale was one of the greatest women in the history of England. She was born on May 12, 1820, in the Italian city of Florence after which she was named. Florence was a highly educated woman. She spoke Italian, French and German with ease.During her childhood and youth she was chiefly interested in taking care of poor people in hospitals; her dream was to become a nurse. In her days, nursing was done only by women of the lowest moral class. In fact, when women were charged in the police courts they were often given the choice of going to prison or to hospital service.Her parents were horrified and did all they could to prevent it, but Florence was not to be turned aside. Whenever she was abroad she visited hospitals, read books on nursing, reports of medical societies, histories of hospitals. She spent some weeks as a sister in a hospital in Paris and three months in a nursing school in Germany. When Florence was 34, she became superintendent of an "Establishment for Gentlewomen during Illness". She had been there a year when the Crimean War broke out. One of the hospitals where injured soldiers received treatment during the war was in a place called Scutari. That's where 39 British nurses led by Florence Nightingale arrived from London in 1854.In less than twelve months, Florence Nightingale and her 38 nurses turned Scutari into a clean, well-organised hospital.Florence Nightingale often worked for twenty-four hours on end dressing wounds, helping surgeons in their operations, easing the pain of the sick, comforting the dying. Every night, carrying a little oil lamp to light her way, she walked by the beds, four miles of them. To the soldiers she was "The Lady with the Lamp", and they worshipped her.Florence Nightingale changed the whole system of the hospital organization of the army. She wrote books on nursing. She started the Nightingale Training School for nurses at St. Thomas's Hospital. She changed the whole idea of hospital planning and is the founder of modem nursing.In 1907 she was given the Order of Merit, the highest civil honor the Government can give and the first ever given to a woman. Three years later Florence Nightingale died.
