Florence Nightingale is estimated to have treated over 1,500 wounded soldiers during the Crimean War. Her work significantly improved sanitation and nursing care, which drastically reduced the Death Rate in military hospitals. Throughout her career, she influenced the treatment and care of countless patients, although exact numbers are difficult to ascertain due to the scope of her work in nursing reform and public health advocacy.

How very little can be done under the spirit of fear. That is a quote by Florence Nightingale.
Isambard Kingdom Brunel did not build a hospital specifically for Florence Nightingale. However, he did play a role in the design and construction of the Royal Naval Hospital in Chatham, which Florence Nightingale visited in the 1860s. The hospital was completed in 1824, many years before Florence Nightingale's work during the Crimean War.
