Florence Nightingale was a nurse who saved many lives in the 19th century. Her
family was rich. Nightingale learned a lot of things as she grew up for her
childhood although people thought women didnt need to study, but her father
gave her a lot of education.

happend with you? Ohh my God it’s hurt ? well, I’ll take you and help to care
you” after that, she rescued and treated the dog with all her heart although it was
dangerous to do so.

parties and get married. One day, she heard about her grandmother’s critical
condition and visited her, she said “ O my grandma, I’ll help and treat you

replied, “That’s nonsense! nursing is not a job of such noble family as ours, more
over, hospitals are dirty places swarming with viruses, thats horrible places” her
parent were very disagree to her desicion. They were worried about her. In 1851,
Nightingale went to Germany and learned all about nursing. It was hard work, but
she loved it.
In 1854, lots of British soldiers went to fight in the Crimean War. Army hospitals
were filled with injured men, but there were no nurses and many men died.
Nightingale and a team of nurse went to help. Nightingale worked 20 hours a day
to make the army hospital a cleaner and safer place. She said “Today I bring the
men fresh food, clean up the hospital beds and use clean bandages on the
wounded soldiers, I hope their will be better”. Soon, fewer men were dying.
At night, Nightingale walked around the hospital. She talked to the injured
soldiers. He said, “I wanna write my letter to my family, can you help me mam?”
