Florence Nightingale worked in the Crimea during the war at the British Army hospital at Scutari (modern-day Istanbul, Turkey). She and her team of nurses significantly improved sanitation and medical care, reducing the mortality rate among wounded soldiers.
In 1844 Nightingale decided to work in hospitals. Her family furiously resisted her plan, on the ostensible ground that nurses were not "ladies" but menial drudges, usually of questionable morals.

In 1853 she became superintendent of the London charity-supported Institution for Sick Gentlewomen in Distressed Circumstances.
