Which statement by a nursing professor is true regarding Florence Nightingale's contribution to American nursing?
a. "Her primary influence was organizing hospital administration and nursing.".
b. "Her primary influence was providing a model for giving care during wartime.".
c. "Her primary influence was organizing patient care in hospital settings.".
d. "Her primary influence was developing an educational model for training nurses.".
D
Although she was influential in many aspects of hospital administration, ministering to the sick, and early research methods to improve patient care, Nightingale's great success prompted her to begin developing schools of nursing in both Europe and the United States based on her know-ledge of what constituted effective nursing. The goals of her programs included training hospital nurses, training nurses to train others, and training nurses to work in the district with the sick poor. Her primary influence was not organizing hospital administration and nursing, providing care models, or organizing patient care.
