Florence Nightingale fonds

  • CA AARN aarn-2208
  • Fonds
  • 1890 - [19__]

Adelaide Nutting pays tribute to Florence Nightingale and her work in developing nursing schools and raising the standards of medical care. She describes a visit to Miss Nightingale "early in this century" and her vigour in old age. Miss Nightingale's brief statement is a greeting to nurses of the future and to her comrades of Balaclava. The audiotape appears to have been copied several times, as sound quality is not good on first listening. A second listening brings out more details.
