Everyone who is born a human being must face death one day. However, death does not bring happiness to anyone. If a department can postpone or prevent death (a) that department is only the medical department. That is why doctors are sometimes compared to God.Those who go to the gates of death and return, and their families. Do doctors have the same reputation as their assistants? Is the biggest question. But the only undeniable fact is that this world is meeting thousands of selfless nurses. We are going to learn about a wonderful woman who was the forerunner of all those nurses.Florence Nightingale (Florence Nightingale) was born on May 12, 1820 in Florence, Italy. His parents were super rich. Those who are in close contact with social (m) political leaders. They wanted their youngest daughter to live a life of wealth and luxury just like themselves.But Florence, who had not even the slightest inclination to a comfortable life, dreamed from an early age that he would do something for humanity in his lifetime.Although his parents strongly opposed it in the early days, the location of their protest before Florence’s lofty policy was soon unknown. At the age of 31, he gave up his family’s wealth and comfortable life and set out on his long – term goal of caring for the sick and the wounded in war.As far as the UK was concerned the nursing profession at that time was a sector that many people abhorred. Only those from disadvantaged sections of the community came to nurse.Nurses were not trained at that time. Wages for nurses were also much lower than wages. Those who were illiterate were ignorant of what cleanliness was and engaged in immoral acts.These are the nurses who worked. Florence dared to change the industry on its own.
She received basic training for nurses in Germany and France. With that training he tried to transform British hospitals. He regretted himself when he trained in Germany. He would get up early in the morning, do all the chores, share simple meals, and go to lectures for nurses.He believed that cleanliness and clean air were the most important aspects of treating patients. So he insisted on setting up large windows in the hospital buildings in order to be ventilated as an alternative to the custom of the time. Moreover, he was the first to think and implement most of the practices in the current nursing profession.His thoughts and lofty principles began to spread throughout the country. Yet it is a historical fact that it took a war to make his giant throat known to the world. In September 1854, the Crimean War broke out.There was no such thing as a system of caring for war wounded and amputees. The Parliamentary Secretary of the Wartime called on Florence to do what it could to take care of them at a time when the plight of war veterans was causing turmoil in the country and was accepted by Queen Victoria of England who sent her blessings.
Arrived at the war camp Scutari on November 4 in Florence. He began his career with 40 selected nurses. His plans for managing patients were based on wartime. They are based on the most stringent regulation.Those who were reluctant to follow it and failed to implement it were sent home. That ironic move by Florence brought him immense benefit. The mortality rate, which was 42 per cent before his arrival, has been drastically reduced to two per cent.Florence spends more than 20 hours a day looking after patients. He not only devised many projects but also undertook all the work of cooking, washing and cleaning the medical equipment and removing the garbage.Every night (a) he would go to bed after looking around all the wards once every morning carrying a lamp in his hand and making sure all the patients were sleeping peacefully. That is why history remembers him as “The Lady with the Lamp”. We can take another meaning for him who helped to illuminate the lives of the sick.He did not hesitate to go to the battlefield three times to refine his mission. He worked hard and became seriously ill and lost his hair. When he returned to England in 1856 after the war, the whole country applauded him.He founded a nursing school called Nightingale at St. Thomas Hospital in England. In 1858 he published an 800-page report. That laid the foundation for British military health.
Throughout his life, Florence laid down the basic rules necessary for the work of hospital staff, the purchase of medical supplies, the selection of hospital equipment, cleaning, clothing and food for patients, and all kinds of hospital-based activities.The methods he developed are followed all over the world. The methods he developed are the foundation of today’s modern nursing profession, and of modern hospital facilities.In 1907, the Queen of England conferred on him the highest title of ‘Order of Merit’ in recognition of his high service in the field of nursing. Notably, Florence was the first woman to receive the award.The following year he was hailed as the ‘Freedom of the City of London’. Florence Nightingale died in England on 13 August 1910 at the age of 90. I have to say that even though he has disappeared he is still wandering around in the image of every nurse today.The next time you see a nurse, thank her. Even if you can’t help her, show her due respect.On top of that a heartfelt thank you to that enlightened nun Florence Nightingale who dedicated her entire life to creating people like him and laid a solid foundation.Like Florence Nightingale, those who think they have to lift mankind an inch, no matter how many obstacles come their way, are sure to reach their lofty goal.
