护士节英文介绍
The International Council of Nurses (ICN) has celebrated this day since 1965.In January 1974,the decision was made to celebrate the day on May 12 as it is the anniversary of the birth of Florence Nightingale,who is widely considered the founder of modern nursing.Each year,ICN prepares and distributes the International Nurses' Day Kit.The kit contains educational and public information materials,for use by nurses everywhere.
As Florence Nightingale is no longer seen as a role model in some parts of the world,demands have arisen,for example by the British public sector union UNISON,to transfer this day on another date.21 May,the birthday of Elizabeth Fry (1780-1845),has been suggested.Elizabeth Fry founded the Institution of Nursing Sisters and is also known for her work with prisoners.
