What is the significance of the Nightingale Pledge?
The Nightingale Pledge is a modified version of the Hippocratic Oath, adapted for nurses. It was created in 1893 as a token of the ethical commitment that nurses make to their profession and patients. Though not written by Florence Nightingale herself, it reflects her values of dedication, compassion, and professional ethics in nursing.
