Watching over your health

[florence nightingale @fIoorence_]

@victoriaqueen_0 If your childhood was not good, imagine the childhood
of rest of the children who are working in hard jobs...

I am very grateful for all the knowledge that I have been obtaing for many years; I hope that in a few years all people will be able to obtain knowledge, I hope that there will finally be equality between men and women, and I hope that health continues improving

[florence nightingale @fIoorence_]

Knowledge of hygiene, knowledge of nursing, preventing illness, or recovering from it, is becoming more important every day. It is recognized as the knowledge that everyone should have - different from medical knowledge, which belongs only to a profession

It is an honor for me that Henry Wadsworth Longfellow has decided to make a poem about me and my experience in Crimea, thank you very much!

@MillicentFawctt @victoriaqueen_0 I agree with you, she is a woman like all of us, and she is not supporting her own rights! she should do something to change it

[florence nightingale @fIoorence_]

@SirConanDoyle_ Here is the example of the failure in society, when thoughts like yours are extinguished, it will be much better for all of us. Men and women are equal, and we should have the same rights. I hope you learn what equality is.

Finally, today I have inaugurated a Nurse Training School at St. Thomas Hospital!

The health reforms for which we have fought so hard are finally underway, the notes I took during my stay in Scutari have helped to promote preventive measures, applying effective reforms.

[florence nightingale @fIoorence_]

@victoriaqueen_0 Well, we couldn't talk about modernity when there are still children working and in poor conditions.

Now I see the lucky that I am because being able to study and habing good life conditions; but anyway I find it very sad to see the bad conditions that some children and women have and I am very sorry that not all of us can study and have the same conditions

[florence nightingale @fIoorence_]

During these days in Crimea I have realized about many things, for the recovery of a patient is necessary to have a good social and psychological environment; not only do you have to be aware of their health, also of the ambience bcs this helps with their recovery

[florence nightingale @fIoorence_]

@victoriaqueen_0 Hope to see it! I'm sure it's amazing

[florence nightingale @fIoorence_]

@MillicentFawctt I agree with you; I don't deny that they are pretty, but just as they do those kinds of photos, they should also show the other side of the war, with hundreds of injured people and thousands of deaths

[florence nightingale @fIoorence_]

@Frankly59700855 The truth is, as a young child that you are, you shouldn't even be working, moreover in those terrible conditions that are detrimental to your health. I hope this situation ends soon for the children and I hope that they raise your salary

[florence nightingale @fIoorence_]

My situation in Crimea is getting very complicated, medical supplies are scarce, hygiene is pitiful and infections abound. I will order the cleaning of polluting landfills and improve the ventilation of the hospitals, I hope and believe that this will lower the mortality rate

[florence nightingale @fIoorence_]

I really like maths, although my parents told me that "it was not for women", but I finally achieved my goal. Just like I did, I know that many more women will do it in a near future; but for this we have to support each other to achieve that change.

[florence nightingale @fIoorence_]

@MillicentFawctt I totally agree with you, and in order to achieve this change in society, we must begin to educate young children that we all have the same rights, that we are all equal

[florence nightingale @fIoorence_]

@_faradaymichael Health is even more important, and it is not given enough importance

[florence nightingale @fIoorence_]

I am so disappointed with the health care that i saw when i arrive in crimea, health is the most important thing. I will do everything possible to get the health care that we all deserve

Today I started my trip to Crimea where I found hundreds of wounded soldiers and they were all receiving inadequate treatment
