## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Timeless Classic
*by P***9 on September 21, 2012*

As a Registered Nurse for over 26 years, I have never read this work before. It was free on Kindle and came highly recommended. What a wonderful glimpse of the foundations of nursing. Although it can be viewed as a historical text, it also is fine contemporary reading. As nurses, we become so focused on the science and technology,(and dare I say, overrun by the weight of our workloads and liability that comes with it) the ability to "minister" to the human being before us is lost.. daily barriers prevent us from providing the "care" that is fundamental. Interventions such as light, fresh air, sleep and comfort and "quieting of the mind from excessive worry" are not just interventions to be used in the absence of technology but as an important adjunct to it. Also in the spirit of taking care of ourselves, this work contains valuable insights for us as well. Elegant historical prose is refreshing. She was indeed a wise visionary. As I was reading, I wondered what she would say about nursing today...

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Relevant and Historical
*by M***N on January 29, 2025*

* Florence was a compassionate and observant nurse who understood the physical and psychological needs of her patients. She observed how the innocuous actions of staff and visitors could distress patients and delay their healing. Her insights can help readers increase their sensitivity to people who are ill.* The book offers good advice regarding the importance of cleanliness. Though her points seem obvious and possibly overstated, it's likely that most people don't give as much attention to the airing of rooms and letting in of sunshine as they should. Her advice is important and relevant to everyone.* The book explains how poor building construction contributed to illness and disease over a century ago. This knowledge is still valuable for people in design / construction to avoid mistakes of the past.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Our History
*by A***Y on January 8, 2013*

It was so extraordinarily interesting to read Nightingale, to reflect on teh times she wrote these notes and how they resonate today. It reminds one that patient care and their safety and interests should be the focus; that the provision of nursing care is about getting those citizens well or home or pain free. The language is somewhat archiac, paragraphs long but the content tells of battles and striving to win over a developing heltah care industry that todya cna count the costs but not necessailry tell the story. Put a chapter a month on final year students web page.
