Florence Nightingale’s legacy as the founder of modern nursing has had a lasting impact on the healthcare system worldwide. Her compassionate care during the Crimean War revolutionized nursing practices, leading to a significant reduction in the death rate at military hospitals. Nightingale’s insistence on sanitary conditions, proper nutrition, and essential care paved the way for nursing to be recognized as a noble profession rather than a menial job. The establishment of the Nightingale Training School for Nurses at St. Thomas' Hospital in 1860 provided formal education and training, a model that has been emulated globally.
