A brief introduction to nightingale
Florence nightingale was born in a wealthy family in Florence on May 1820, and moved to England with his parents. 1850, she went to Germany to study nursing despite her family's opposition. 1854 to 1856, the British, French and Turkish allied forces fought against tsarist Russia in Crimea. As a result, the British field hospital was poorly managed, the ambulance was in poor condition and there was no nurse to look after it. As a result, the death rate of the wounded and sick in Britain is as high as 50%.
Nightingale led the nurses to the battlefield hospital, improved the nursing quality by improving the hospital management system, and reduced the mortality rate of the wounded and sick to 2.2% in just a few months. She was once a legend in England. Soldiers on the battlefield called her "the goddess of lanterns". She is familiar with math, English, French, German and Italian. Besides classical literature, she is also good at natural science, history and philosophy, and is good at music and painting.
