Florence Nightingale OM RRC DStJ (/ˈnaɪtɪŋɡeɪl/; 12 May
1820 – 13 August 1910) was an English social reformer, statistician and
the founder of modern nursing. Nightingale came to prominence while
serving as a manager and trainer of nurses during the Crimean War, in
which she organised care for wounded soldiers at Constantinople.[4] She
significantly reduced death rates by improving hygiene and living
standards. Nightingale gave nursing a favourable reputation and became
an icon of Victorian culture, especially in the persona of "The Lady
with the Lamp" making rounds of wounded soldiers at night.[5][6
