Meet Florence Nightingale, the founder of modern nursing. Growing up in an upper-class family, it was expected that Florence would find a husband and live a life of luxury—but that kind of life wasn’t for her. Her calling was caring for the sick and the poor, so she followed her passion with her whole heart and trained to be a nurse. When war broke out, Florence travelled to nurse wounded soldiers but found that the hospitals were so dirty that they were making people ill! This experience inspired her to lead a healthcare revolution, and she became the mother of modern nursing, introducing care practices still followed today. This inspiring book features stylish and quirky illustrations and extra facts at the back, including a biographical timeline with historical photos and a detailed profile of the social reformer’s life. -
In this classic historical text on hospitals - featuring a foreword by the Florence Nightingale Museum - Nightingale reveals her passion for good hospital architecture and design. At Scutari she saw first-hand the harm which can be caused by inadequate and poorly designed hospital buildings. Nightingale openly criticised designs which she thought might lead to higher infection rates, and therefore patients' deaths. Published in conjunction with the Florence Nightingale Museum, the cover of this edition is exclusive to the museum. -
Florence Nightingale’s seminal work, the classical historical nursing text. Florence Nightingale wrote Notes on Nursing to help ordinary women care for their families. Translated into over ten languages, and never out of print since its first appearance, this really is the classic nursing text. Over 160 years later much of the advice given continues to be pertinent in the extreme, especially in the light of the recent global pandemic. Published in conjunction with - and including a foreword by - the Florence Nightingale Museum. The cover of this edition is exclusive to the museum.
