History of nursing
Thanks to the project developed by the Polish Nurses’ Association in cooperation with the Foundation for Polish Nursing Development, co-funded by the Citizens Initiatives Fund’s Operational Programme, we can realize a dream about dissemination tie idea and history of this unique profession.
MThe Museum attempts to present our heritage, memory, and gratitude towards our predecessors. It is also a challenge for next generations of nurses. We encourage to learn more about our history, as an integral element of national heritage, Polish history, history of medicine, religious convents, and – last but not least – Polish women. Knowledge about one’s roots helps in developing professional identity, affiliation, relations, and pride. It inspires and enforces in work towards professional development.
Krystyna Wolska-Lipiec:
There is no tomorrow without today.
Today will be yesterday tomorrow, and history in fact.
Knowledge about one’s roots helps in developing affiliation, relations, pride, and professional identity.
It inspires and enforces for work on the profession’s development.
