Over the weekend, the world celebrated International Nurses Day, which commemorates the birth of Florence Nightingale, a pioneer of modern nursing.
During the Crimean War, Florence Nightingale revolutionized nursing by implementing hygiene practices and improving hospital management in ways that would define the healthcare industry for decades. Known as the "Lady with the Lamp," she tirelessly cared for wounded soldiers and advocated for public health policy reforms that would transform medicine and solidify the nursing profession as a cornerstone of modern care delivery.
Today, nurses continue to play a crucial role in advancing the quality of care for patients around the world. Built upon Florence Nightingale’s reforms, nursing has grown to encompass a number of modern care modalities and responsibilities.
