Abstract:
This paper seeks to fill a gap in nursing historiography by presenting an overview of the historical presence of Jewish women in nursing. The topic is viewed within the context of women's history and of nursing history. The authors identify several illustrious Jewish women whose contributions to nursing have earned them a place in the annals of the profession. It is hoped that this article will inspire studies about Jewish women in nursing today.
