Slide one: Nursing Research The Voice of Florence Nightingale (30th of July, 1890) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ax3B4gRQNU4 (Perhaps you can put this picture next to the embedded video.)

Slide two: Nursing Research Florence Nightingales Theory is a grand theory (broad in scope, complex and required more specification through research in also provides a structural framework for broad ideas about nursing). Florence Nightingale was the first nurse to open an official School of Nursing and one of the first to write a book for nursing. Nightingales concept was rooted in manipulating the clients environment. In addition her thoughts were that nurses did not need to know all about the disease process, this was where she differentiated nursing from medicine.

Slide three: Nursing Research (this may need to be split into several slides) In 1857 Florence Nightingale published her first book about nursing entitled Notes on Nursing: What it is and, what its not.

Petty Management - knowing how to manage that what you do when you are there, [and what] shall be done when you are not there (Nightingale, 1957, p. 20). Patient - assumed to be an individual in need of care. Disease - The reparative process which Nature has instituted. (Nightingale, 1957, p. 5) Health - Nightingale defined health as being well, but to be able to use well every power we have to use (Nightingale, 1954). Environment - assumed to be fresh air, light, warmth, diet, quiet, and cleanliness. Fresh Air - ventilation, purest air possible Light - Expose patient to light during the day and vary the environment Warmth - dry and warm, but not too warm, comfortable and dry. Chang, J., Wood, J., Bergeran, A., McBride, L., Ball, B., Yu, Q., et. al. (2004, August). Effects of Low Temperature on Shear-InducedPlatelet Aggregation and Activation. Diet - no bad milk, meat, or vegetables, tailor to the patient, variety, dont leave food around all the time, time limit for meals. Quiet - reduce noise around a sick patient so the patient may rest.

Stoppler, M. (2004). The Relaxation Response. Cleanliness - clean room and bedding. Cannot have a clean room without a clean house. Pure water and efficient drainage. Notes on Nursing

Florence Nightingale was the daughter of a wealthy land owner and was educated in Greek, Latin, French, German, Italian, history, philosophy and mathematics. Despite her outstanding education her father expected her to become a wife and according to the custom of the time manage the household and the servants and have children. However at the age of 17 Florence Nightingale felt she was called by God to do something else with her life. Despite her parents many efforts to marry her off, at the age of 25 she told her parents she wanted to become a nurse. In 1851 at the age of 31 her father gave her permission to go to the Institute of Protestant Deaconesses at Kaiserswerth in Germany. She took an exam in 1853 and completed her nursing training education.

Slide five: Practice Florence Nightingale was essentially a nurse manager upon completion of her training at Kaiserswerth. She was appointed lady superintendent of a hospital for invalid women in London and in 1854 she was asked to go to Turkey to aid the medical units on the war front. Years after returning from the Crimean War, this was the site of many casualties due to cholera, malaria, inadequate and subpar sanitation, medical staff and field hospital facilities. Florence Nightingale opened The Nightingale Training School for Nurses in 1860 and from that day forward Nursing was transformed into a profession.
