What is florence Nightingale's mum do?
Florence Nightingale was instrumental in sanitizing hospitals and bringing reforms to the way medical care was provided to patients.
Nightingale began her work to reform hospitals during the Crimean War. When she arrived in Scutari, Turkey in 1853, she found the conditions at the military hospital there to be appalling. The men were kept in rooms without blankets or decent food. Unwashed, they were still wearing their army uniforms that were stiff with dirt and gore. As a result, diseases such as typhus and cholera were the main reasons why the death rate among soldiers was so high. Nightingale established more sanitary conditions, and ordered supplies, including clothing and bedding.
Nightingale later began to focus more attention on administration than actual nursing. She applied her education and interest in mathematics to develop statistical analyses of disease and mortality, inventing the use of the pie chart.
When she returned to England in 1856, she went to work on improving and reforming conditions in military hospitals in England. She also advocated for nursing education and the professionalization of nursing.
