About The 200th Anniv. of Florence Nightingale´s Birth

Florence Nightingale was born in Florence on 12 May 1820, a date commemorated each year with International Nurses Day. To mark the 200th anniversary of the birth of the illustrious nurse, the World Health Organisation (WHO) has designated 2020 as the International Year of the Nurse. This tribute to a woman who dedicated her life to caring for the most vulnerable members of society, understood the value and importance of professionalising nursing and helped to train several generations of nurses aims to draw attention to the role of nurses in providing healthcare, highlighting the issues and challenges currently facing the profession and emphasising the need to increase investment in the sector.
