Titre: Crimean War, Florence Nightingale at Scutari

Légende:

Traduction automatique: Miss Nightingale à l'hôpital de Scutari. Florence Nightingale (12 mai 1820 - 13 août 1910), par sa force de caractère, a créé le mouvement qui a conduit au statut professionnel des infirmières. Sa carrière a commencé lorsqu'elle a soigné sa mère atteinte d'une maladie en phase terminale. Son exposition formelle à la médecine était un cours de 3 mois à l'Institut des diaconesses protestantes en Allemagne. Elle s'est fait connaître en tant que responsable des infirmières qu'elle avait formées pendant la guerre de Crimée, où elle organisait les soins aux soldats blessés. Elle a donné aux soins infirmiers une réputation très favorable et est devenue une icône de la culture victorienne, notamment dans le personnage de « La Dame à la lampe » faisant la ronde des soldats blessés la nuit. Après la guerre, elle a créé l'école et le foyer Nightingale pour former des infirmières à l'hôpital St. Thomas. Une grande partie de ses travaux publiés concernaient la diffusion des connaissances médicales. Certains de ses traités étaient rédigés dans un anglais simple afin qu'ils puissent être facilement compris par ceux qui avaient de faibles compétences littéraires. Elle mourut paisiblement dans son sommeil, en 1910, à l'âge de 90 ans.
