Chapter 1, Exploring the Growth of Nursing as a Profession
1. Which historical images impeded the development of nursing as a profession?
Select all that apply.
A. Religious
B. Servant
C. Folk
D. Ancient
E. Social
Answer: A, B, C
Rationale: Nursing has carried forward three heritages from the past that some
believe impeded the development of nursing as a profession. They are the folk image
of the nurse brought forward from primitive times, the religious image of the nurse
inherited from the medieval period, and the servant image of the nurse created by the
Protestant-capitalist ethic from the 16th to 19th century. Although ancient cultures
developed medicine as a science and a profession, writings about early healthcare
make little or no mention of nursing or nurses. Ancient images make no mention of
nursing or nurses. Social image is not identified as a historical image of nursing.

, profession? Select all that apply.
A. Caring
B. Lifelong learning
C. Improved conditions for clients
D. Theory-based curriculum for students
E. Voluntary nursing teachers
F. Physician-based nursing curriculum
Answer: A, B, C, D
Rationale: Florence Nightingale believed that nurses should spend their time caring
for clients, not cleaning, and nurses must continue learning throughout their lifetime.
The curriculum would include both theoretic material and practical experience.
Teachers would be paid for their instruction. The school matron would have final
authority over the curriculum, living arrangements, and all other aspects of the
school.

3. Which recommendation best describes the findings of an 1869 report by the
American Medical Association regarding nursing education?
A. Every large hospital should have a nursing school.
B. Schools should be under the national medical society.
C. Nurses should be recruited from shelters.
D. Nurses should provide most of the workforce for hospitals.
Page 2
,Answer: A
Rationale: In 1869, the American Medical Association established a committee to
study the issue of training for nurses. Its report concluded that every large hospital
should have a nursing school and recommended that schools be placed under the
guardianship of county medical societies. Although nurses were often recruited from
shelters in the early 1800s, this was not included in the report. The report did not
describe workforce for hospitals.

4. Which factors best describe characteristics of early nursing schools around the
turn of the century? Select all that apply.
A. Promoted religious image of the nurse
B. Largely considered an apprenticeship
C. Lacked standardized curriculum
D. Students commuted long distances
E. Attrition rate was low
Answer: A, B, C
Rationale: Nursing students were expected to be unselfish, thinking not of themselves
but of the happiness and well-being of others. This is in keeping with the “religious
image” of the nurse. Initially, nursing education was largely an apprenticeship and
resulted in students providing much of the workforce of hospitals. There was no
Page 3
, standardization of curriculum and no accreditation. Although some of the early
programs provided sleeping quarters in the hospital, nursing students usually were
housed in a building next to the hospital. The attrition rate was high in the early
schools.

5. A nursing student is reading about military influences that brought about
significant changes in nursing. Place these influential events in order of
occurrence?
A. Administration of small pox vaccinations
B. GI Bill enacted
C. Development of The Red Cross
D. Invention of ambulances
Answer: A, D, C, B
Rationale: The American Revolution saw the development of dispensaries with the
Philadelphia dispensary being the first place to vaccinate against small pox as
preventative medicine. The Civil War saw the invention of ambulances and was
instrumental in the development of nursing. The Red Cross was born during the
Spanish-American War. The GI bill came into existence at the end of World War II and
made it possible for many nurses to enter bachelor and master’s degree programs
after serving with the military.
