Trivia Question: What “founder of modern nursing” was an English medical professional who helped soldiers during the Crimean War?
Answer: Florence Nightingale
Nightingale had the revolutionary theory that keeping soldiers in sanitary conditions would help them recover without taking on further illness. That might sound like common sense to us now, but Nightingale saved many lives by spreading these practices. Additionally, she was a disciplined medic who constantly monitored the conditions of her patients in order to treat them as soon as they needed it.
