In the 1870s, America’s first trained nurse, Linda Richards was mentored by Nightingale. Richards went on to pioneer the development of nursing in both America and Japan (Doona 1996). In 1883, Nightingale was awarded the Royal Red Cross by Queen Victoria, and became the first woman to receive the Order of Merit. In 1873, Nightingale wrote, ‘Nursing is most truly said to be a high calling, an honourable calling’.
However, Florence Nightingale was opposed to this notion, worried that central examination might undermine her philosophy of nursing. In 1887, Ethel Bedford-Fenwick (a former Matron at St Bartholomew’s Hospital, London) formed the British Nurses’ Association, which sought to provide for the registration of British nurses, based on the same terms as physicians and surgeons, as evidence of their having received systematic training. Bedford-Fenwick was a staunch supporter of professional regulation.
