Abstract

Nursing has been considered a profession only since the establishment of training schools with the definitive standard of curriculum. In early English history, there were almost no doctors and none at all outside the important cities. The monks and nuns, all self-taught, became the prescribers for the community white noblewomen, who had a great number of servants and people dependent upon them, also developed skills in the art of healing. Educated persons, both men and women, were taught a little “physic” and surgery as part of their schooling. The “nurse” was little more than a ward maid, and there could not have been much real nursing done.
