Feedback:
Innovations included establishment of a nurses' residence; entrance examinations, not exit examinations, and academic and personal requirements, including a character reference; records of each student's progress, later known as the "Nightingale plan," not the "Henderson plan," which is a model for current nursing programs; and records of employment of students after graduation, not before graduation.
