History of Nursing in mainland Europe
In ancient times, when medical knowledge associated with the spirits of good or evil, the pain is usually treated in temples and houses of worship. In the early Christian era nursing tasks performed by certain women in the church, which expanded their services to patients in their homes. These women have no real training by today's standards, but the experience taught them valuable skills, especially in the use of herbs and medicines, and some gained fame as a doctor of their age.

in the 17th century, St. Vincent de Paul began to encourage women to have some form of training for nursing job, but there is no real training school for nurses hospital until one is established in Kaiserwerth, Germany, in 1846. There, Florence Nightingale received training, at St Thomas' Hospital in London, the first school designed primarily to train nurses rather than providing nursing care hospitals. The same school was founded in 1873 in New York City, New Haven (Conn.), And Boston. Nursing later became one of the most important professions open to women until the social changes brought about by the rise of the feminist movement that began in 1960, the nursing shortage in US hospitals

It was called Ikrat Florence Nightingale as a token of appreciation to the founder of modern nursing. He said "I solemnly pledge myself before God and in the presence of a place of worship, to live my life in purity and devotion to my profession faithfully. I will abstain from whatever damage and hurt, and will not take or knowingly administer dangerous. I will devote all my energy and ability to maintain and improve the standard of my profession. With loyalty will I endeavor to aid the physician in his work, and devote themselves to the welfare of those committed to my nursing.
