It&#8217;s a reminder of the urgent need to reshape perceptions about nursing and recognize its immense value.<\/p>\n<div dir=\"auto\">To celebrate Nurses Day, here are some fun facts:<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li dir=\"auto\">Did you know that nursing wasn&#8217;t recognized as a profession until 1916? Before then, it was often regarded as a low-status occupation, not needing proper education.<\/li>\n<li dir=\"auto\">Agnodice from ancient Greece, is the first recorded nurse in history. She defied societal norms by disguising herself as a man to practice medicine, as women were not allowed to back then.<\/li>\n<li dir=\"auto\">Considered the mother of modern nursing, Florence Nightingale, immortalized the nursing cap. Today it is mostly reserved for ceremonial occasions due to hygiene concerns.<\/li>\n<li dir=\"auto\">Florence Nightingale is affectionately known as the &#8216;lady with the lamp,&#8217; because she used to make her nightly rounds during the Crimean War, tending to wounded solders with a lamp in her hand. This is why the lamp is the symbol of nursing.<\/li>\n<li dir=\"auto\">Nurses are no strangers to staying on their feet. On an average 12-hour shift, a nurse walks approximately 7 kilometres, sometimes even reaching up to 11 kilometres.<\/li>\n<li dir=\"auto\">These days, many nurses are embracing social media platforms like Instagram and TikTok to share insights into their profession, fostering transparency and connection with the public.<\/li>\n<li dir=\"auto\">Nurses are consistently ranked as one of the most trustworthy and ethical professions. In the United States, they&#8217;ve held the top spot for 18 consecutive years.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>AINQA wishes to thank Nurses everywhere for your tireless dedication, compassion, and unwavering support.
