Angels in Scrubs traces the remarkable evolution of nursing from its ancient spiritual and communal roots to its place at the heart of modern healthcare. Journey through the healing traditions of Ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, India, China, Greece, and Rome, where caregivers combined practical remedies with faith, philosophy, and compassion. Discover how monasteries, religious orders, wartime hospitals, and early medical institutions preserved the art of caregiving through centuries of social and scientific change. The book also explores the revolutionary influence of Florence Nightingale, whose commitment to sanitation, education, statistical research, and patient-centred care transformed nursing into a respected profession. Moving into the twentieth century, it examines the growth of nursing education, specialised fields, professional organisations, ethical standards, and the expanding role of nurses as practitioners, advocates, scholars, and leaders. Informative, inspiring, and deeply respectful, Angels in Scrubs celebrates the resilience, knowledge, and compassion of the individuals who have dedicated their lives to caring for others.
