Nightingale and The Earliest Nursing Education Programs: Women's First 50 Years of Medical Education Break it up in smaller lots

15151NIGHTINGALE Florence. Collection of 32 pieces celebrating the first 50 years of nursing education which made nursing into the first respected medical profession for women. This collection includes a First Edition of Nightingale's influential guide Notes on Nursing 1859 and a handwritten Nightingale letter with wonderful content on her training school and hospital followed by many more tactile and visual pieces from the period ranging from approximately 1880-1930 when women entered the first official nursing programs to obtain theoretical education on disease prevention and antisepsis practical training in patient-centered care and certification and accolades for their excellent work. While nursing was initially considered a volunteer service the founding of the Nightingale School of Nursing in 1862 caused rapid changes developing nursing into a true medical profession. Programs opened worldwide basing their training on the "Nightingale Principles" that emphasized patient-centered care through systemic cleanliness and stemming of infection in hospitals. The first time these important ideas were placed in print was in Nightingale's 1859 Notes on NursingÂ¸ a guide to patient care within the hospital and community which has remained relevant to the present day. A First Edition of Nightingale's Notes on Nursing published before even her training hospital was founded is included with this collection. A wonderful early letter on St. Thomas Hospital the site of Nightingale's first training school which she wrote in 1864 shortly after its founding is included here are well. In this letter Nightingale laments that "poor St. Thomas is in such a "fix & has so many bad friends that he ought to keep all his good ones." She is no doubt referring to the back-handed business deal that led to the hospital's moved to an abandoned music hall with sub-par hygiene for nine years starting shortly after her training program had found its home there. She discusses the immediate effects on her own students "I should never have placed my Probationers at St. Thomas but that Mr Whitfield & Mrs Wardroper were there.and when St Thomas' with its ample income has not contributed one farthing to but has profited by the Services of my Training School." Nightingale herself championed the creation of a new building and helped design it for modern standards of safety and hygiene. Among the first programs to model itself after Nightingale's example wertr the Spelman Nursing Program founded in 1886 and the Johns Hopkins School of Nursing in 1889. In order to distinguish nurses' uniforms from those of servants the programs instructed nurses to wear pocketed aprons for carrying tools and the schools provided ruffled caps that were easy for patients to identify in hospital hallways. An early vintage cap from circa 1880 is included in this collection. By the turn of the century nursing education had aligned with university criteria and rigorous training became mandatory. In 1902 the U.S. and New Zealand initiated standard requirements for registered nurses to pass medical examinations; and by 1909 the University of Minnesota was the first to award a bachelor's degree in nursing. In 1919 the U.K. passed the Nursing Act requiring all nurses to join a registry; and in 1923 Yale University School of Nursing became the first autonomous college in the field. Such programs required women to take 2-3 years of medical coursework and pass certification exams. As is evident by this collection's handwritten nursing class notebook these women gained intensive knowledge about anatomy nutrition and disease. The notes in this collection include anatomical drawings as well as detailed information on "the practice of hygiene important in care of patient.how to prevent infection.uses to body of food and amount of food needed by individual patient" based on condition and diagnosis. It comes with a very rare 1911 "The Trained Nurse" booklet which contains educational matter on sexual and dental hygiene for patients to lower the risk of infection as well as information about a nurse's commitment to her training program. OCLC Worldcat lists no other known copies. After completing classes nursing students apprenticed in their program's hospital until graduation. Instructors and administrators continued to value the use of uniforms and they made the clothing more functional for women whose daily tasks ranged from explaining doctors' diagnoses and treatments during consultations to the dressing of wounds. While uniforms evolved to become more streamlined they still bore visual signs of a student's experience and accomplishments. The nursing cap continued to be the most recognizable sign of entrance to the profession and getting her cap was a formal right of passage to a young nurse. Women only obtained the cap during a ceremony in which nurses from the program pinned the caps to the new nurses' heads. As students rose through the ranks and ultimately graduated they would receive a nursing lapel pin showing their entrance into a specialized field. This collection includes each of these important pieces: a white vintage nursing cap and lapel pin. In addition it contains a handwritten journal with beautiful colored handdrawn illustrations poems and diary entries by a nurse during her hospital training. The women who graduated from nursing programs had met the mandatory benchmarks; indeed these women also often exceeded requirements and won honors for their work. Celebrating these landmark accomplishments this collection includes a set of 5 turn of the century graduation invitations an early commencement booklet with individual nursing graduation photos 3 early diplomas for women graduating from nursing programs 8 class photos and 7 individual female graduate portraits. The photos visually document the collective changes that these nurses' uniforms underwent across the decades as well as the women's pride in obtaining their degree. The collection also contains a "Champion of Head Nurses" trophy awarded to a young nurse for her leadership within her new hospital. As this collection shows these women's educations led them to become proud and dedicated professionals excited to apply their knowledge in ways that made a difference.
