This is a brief review of the accomplishments of Florence Nightingale. She is known to all as the Lady with the Lamp and the Founder of Modern Nursing. It is less well-known that in her lifetime she played a major role in the reform of the medical services of the British Army and the initiation of the British Army Medical School; she was a statistician and one of the founders of epidemiology; she was a world authority on hospital design; and additionally she was a linguist and a Greek scholar. She achieved all this, not through being a ministering angel, but because of her iron will, hard work, leadership, and political skill.
这是对弗洛伦斯·南丁格尔成就的简要回顾。她作为“提灯女神”和现代护理学的创始人广为人知。鲜为人知的是，在她的一生中，她在英国军队医疗服务改革和英国陆军医学院的创办中发挥了重要作用；她是一名统计学家，也是流行病学的创始人之一；她是医院设计方面的世界权威；此外，她还是一名语言学家和希腊学者。她取得所有这些成就，并非凭借成为一名护理天使，而是由于她钢铁般的意志、辛勤工作、领导力和政治技巧。
