Pre-Florence Nightingale
Before Florence Nightingale made huge strides in the field of nursing, there was no set standard in the field. Nurses would often train through trial and error and typically did not have any formal education in patient care. Thanks to Nightingale, nursing has become a recognized profession.
Pediatric Nurse
Pediatric nurses work with infants, children, and teenagers. Their workload is similar to other nurses, but they will also typically administer vaccines and will treat common illnesses that are unique to children.
