Kirschling PhD, RN, FAAN For more than a century, the University of Maryland School of Nursing has been committed to excellence in educating nurses who have become experts in their fields, clinicians, educators, and leaders in Maryland, the nation, and around the globe. The School of Nursing was established as a hospital training school in 1889, emerged as an autonomous entity in 1952, and is celebrating its 125th anniversary in 2014. As we celebrate our past and look to our future, we cannot forget the nurse pioneers who came before us. We value the legacy of those who carried the torch in the name of nursing, including Clara Barton, Dorothea Dix, Mary Mahoney, Florence Nightingale, Louisa Parsons, Lucile Petry, and Lillian Wald, whose names Evaluation Laboratory was expanded, as was our nursing are all etched on the façade of our building.

  • Jane A. Delano: Founder of the American Red Cross Nursing Service a Story from Schuyler County’S History for March’S Women’S History Month
    Jane A. Delano: Founder of the American Red Cross Nursing Service A story from Schuyler County’s history for March’s Women’s History Month Hundreds of thousands of nurses have served the American Red Cross, caring for military personnel and civilians in times of war and for communities in times of need. Jane Arminda Delano of Schuyler County is credited to this day with the success of the Red Cross Nursing Service. Jane Delano (De-LAY-no) was born in 1862 in the Townsend area in the Town of Dix. She attended a rural school in Dix and then Cook Academy boarding school in Montour Falls (now the New York State Academy of Fire Sciences). After graduating from Cook, she taught in rural schools before enrolling in the Bellevue Hospital Training School for Nurses in New York City, graduating in 1886. “I can’t say that anything romantic or sentimental determined me to be a nurse,” Delano once wrote, according to the American Red Cross. “Many young nurses start out with the statement that the sight of suffering impelled them to begin a career of alleviating distress, but please don’t say that my career was ever influenced by such sentiment.” Her reason for becoming a nurse was simple, she said. “I think the nurse’s profession is a fine one, and I like it.” In 1888, in the midst of a yellow fever epidemic, she was hired as superintendent of the Sandhills Hospital near Jacksonville, Florida. Appalled at hospital conditions she found there, Delano instituted a regime of elementary hygiene and placed screens around each patient’s bed because she rightly suspected mosquitos as fever carriers.

Without the support of my professors, my cohort, my family, and my friends, I would not have been able to write this thesis. First, I would like to thank my advisor, Dr. Elaine Frantz. Without her support, enthusiasm, and patience, this thesis would not have been possible. When I doubted myself and wondered if I was capable of seeing graduate school through, she encouraged me; when I worried over the Covid-19 pandemic and was unable to think about this thesis for a few weeks, she understood and told me to take the time I needed. I could not have done this without her. I would also like to thank my committee members: Dr. Kevin Adams, Dr. Matthew Crawford, and Dr. Tara Smith. They all provided me with helpful comments and criticism, bringing up things I would not have considered on my own, and encouraged me to think outside of the box.

Initially, the department was unable to answer the call for medical assistance from Britain, a nation that had been at war since 1914. The War Department had begun a reorganization of the Army’s Medical Department on February 2, 1901, that included the creation of an Army Nurse Corps of trained female nurses, responsible for the care of sick and wounded soldiers. This action freed the enlisted men of the Hospital Corps to fill positions in field medi- cal units and hospitals as well as in infantry and cavalry regiments, thus improving the quality and efficiency of military medical care.
