The Woman Who Raised a Nation In the book Founding Mothers: The Women Who Raised Our Nation, Cokie Roberts gives voice to the unsung female heroes who helped shape the foundation of the United States. The women she wrote about faced enormous challenges yet believed in the possibility of a radical concept called democracy. They gave a great deal of themselves during the building of this nation, perhaps none more so than George Washington’s wife Martha. One of Martha’s many contributions to the birth of this nation was the support she gave to military troops in order to boost morale. Early on in her marriage to George, Martha got down in the trenches and joined him at army camp which started “a pattern that was to last throughout the war” (Roberts 87).
Through many struggles and obstacles Our past nursing leaders advocated for themselves and their patients. * standard of care What solutions were proposed or implemented? * Standard of care by Thanks to Wald efforts in 1912 the National Organization for Public Health Nursing ( NOPHN) was founded to set standards and to plan for the expansion of community- based nursing services ( Randall, 1937). * In 1893 ANA was established to ensure the public safety and validate nursing education via licensure.

Anthony Castellano 11-19-12 Ms. Miller 1st period Queen Elizabeth’s speech at Tilbury Queen Elizabeth’s speech at Tilbury allowed her troops to march almost fearlessly into battle, by placing courage and passion into her troops’ hearts. Her word choice, tone, organization and knowledge of her audience gave her a better chance at the success of war. Throughout this speech Queen Elizabeth uses careful word choice to inspire those who are preparing for battle. If you notice in the first sentence she uses the word “we”, this provides a feeling of safety and well-being not only for her but for the troops and the country in which they are fighting for. This may give the troops a greater will to fight not only for themselves but for their families as well.
This paper provides a critical analysis of primary sources, such as publications, diaries and letters by the battlefield nurses and secondary sources addressing the involvement of women nurses (battlefield angels) in the American civil war. Battlefield Nurses during the Civil War Volunteer nurses were invaluably resourceful during the civil war by providing aid and comfort to wounded as well as sick soldiers. At the beginning of the national struggle, the nursing profession was dominated by men due to the consideration that women were too frail to handle the severities of administering to the wounded and sick. The insufficient medical supplies and insufficient medical treatment in

20th Century American History 12 August 2014 Rosie and the Propaganda This particular documentary is probably one of the best films that really shows the home front during World War II and women in particular endured during it. What really sparked my interest however was the use of propaganda during these times, and how it evolved from the beginning of the war up until when the war was over. Propaganda itself was used in a way to motivate the American people during the war to up their efforts to helping the cause and even at some points to guilt trip people into thinking they were not doing enough. Women in particular were used as a primary target of this into taking over for men in factories and other jobs while the men were fighting the

The History of Public Health and the Role of the Community/Public Health Nurse Melissa Wixon Walden University NURS 4011 Section 05, Family, Community and Population-Based Care July 19, 2014 The History of Public Health and the Role of the Community/Public Health Nurse For over one hundred years, nurses have worked within the community to improve the health of its’ citizens, families and overall populations, all while attempting to develop strategies to solve evolving health threats to society. From early colonial times to current times, nurses work feverishly to not only treat the sick but increase the healthy. The purpose of this paper is to give a history of public health nursing, the impact that public health nursing has had on society from the local, state and national level, and to discuss an ethical dilemma that may be encountered while dealing within in these nursing roles. History of Public Health Nursing Early nursing began in the home, as women cared for their children and families. After the American Revolution, basic public health services evolved, and with that the eventually establishment of the Red Cross in America.
This shows that Nightingale was always trying her to prevent illness and death. This shows that Nightingale had a large impact as she was determined to prevent death and was passionate about the care of soldiers. Furthermore, from using my own knowledge, the source’s judgement is valid as men that were in her care saw her as an inspirational figure. They felt comfortable in her presence and they gave her knick name of ‘th lady with the lamp’ as she would visit every ward at night before the soldiers went to sleep. Source 5 also supports the statement that Nightingale made huge improvements.
Seacole was originally from the West Indies and voyaged to the Crimean war because she wanted to help nurse the wounded soldiers .This shows that Seacole was in Crimea to actually help the soldiers and aid the medical assistance, I think that this shows the true qualities of the ‘Angel of Mercy’. In comparison, source V speaks of how Florence Nightingale revolutionised the way in hospitals in the Crimea were run. This could be seen from the quotation ‘formidable gifts for organisation’. In contrast, source 2C describes the energy in which Nightingale preformed every task and compares her against the grit and determination of the soldiers. An example of this is ‘battled as valiantly as any soldier in the field to improve conditions’.
