Florence Nightingale ( )

Florence Nightingale was born on 12 May 1820 into a rich, upper- class, well-connected British family at the Villa Colombia, in Florence, Italy, and was named after the city of her birth.

Florence Nightingale was a celebrated English social reformer and statistician, and the founder of modern nursing.

Florence Nightingale came to prominence while serving as a nurse during the Crimean War, where she tended to wounded soldiers.

She was known as "The Lady with the Lamp" after her habit of making rounds at night.

Her notoriety is based in the sanitary reforms that were instituted under her supervision during the Crimean War. By providing proper food, improving sanitary conditions, the mortality rates were reduced from 42% to 2% during the 2 years that she served in the Crimea.

She saved thousands of lives and became very famous.

Florence Nightingale had a lot of political influence and one of her greatest contribution was to call attention to the lack of sanitary conditions and to influence the politicians at home to make changes in the condition of health care facilities and services for the British soldiers.

She wrote two books. «Notes on Hospitals»was a detailed analysis of the construction and sanitary considerations to improve health care facilities and «Notes on Nursing»was written for the «domestic» nurse to give guidance to provide care for the sick at home.

Later she started her own training college for nurses.

On 13 August 1910, at the age of 90, she died peacefully in her sleep in her room at 10 South Street, Mayfair, London.
