Florence Nightingale was born at Florence in Italy on 15th May, 1820. Her parents
called her after the name of the city where she was born. Her sole ambition in life was
to be a nurse and so she gave up all thoughts of marriage and personal happiness. She
spent years visiting hospital after hospital. Day and night she visited every bed in the
hospital to see that no patient was neglected and that all were as comfortable as possible.
However hard she might have worked all day, every night she would take her lamp and
move from bed to bed. So the soldiers called her 'The lady with the lamp'.

Answer:
Florence Nightingale (1820-1910), known as “The Lady With the Lamp,” was a British nurse, social reformer and statistician best known as the founder of modern nursing. Her experiences as a nurse during the Crimean War were foundational in her views about sanitation. She established St. Thomas’ Hospital and the Nightingale Training School for Nurses in 1860. Her efforts to reform healthcare greatly influenced the quality of care in the 19 and 20 centuries.
