In Celebration of Florence Nightingale: 2010 as The Year of the Nurse




This year has been designated as the 2010 International Year of the Nurse, in remembrance and celebration of the pioneering and visionary work of Florence Nightingale, who died 100 years ago. Nightingale lived until the age of 90 years, dedicating her life to nursing and health care. Known as “the lady with the lamp,” attending to and caring for victims of the Crimean War, Nightingale was also an environmentalist and a statistician.
