In 1893, nurses working in the Henry Street Settlement were some of the first to demonstrate
autonomy in practice because they encountered situations that required quick and innovative
problem solving and critical thinking, and provided therapies aimed at maintaining wellness,
as well as curing the ill. Nursing hospitals expanded in the late nineteenth century and were
major providers of nursing care. Not until the early twentieth century was there a movement
toward a scientific, research-based body of nursing knowledge.
