“The context in which the nursing profession exists is also still a consideration as the world faces the implications of a global society and the challenges of potential pandemic diseases, persistent wars, and continuing nursing shortages. The future of nursing will likely continue to demand nursing care that is innovative, efficient, cost effective, and responsive to human needs in all settings.” (Friberg, & Creasia, 2016).

This quote couldn’t be more accurate when comparing the history of nursing to present day practice. We are still providing care to the sick and poor, just as the Priest Vincent De Paul was in 1633 (Nursing Timeline of Historical Events.) We have also learned from nursing legends such as Florence Nightingale, who paved the way for providing sanitary conditions in the hospitals she worked in. Last but not least, Mildred Montag who institutionalized the two-year nursing degree, in which we are all familiar with.

Learning about these healthcare providers has influenced my nursing practice, because I am inspired by how much has developed since the beginning of this profession. I want to be a part of providing excellent patient care, and continuing to grow with the future of nursing.
