问题    In earlier centuries, nursing care was usually provided by volunteers who had little or no training--most commonly men and women of various religious orders. Toward the end of the 18th century nursing was considered an unsuitable occupation for "proper" young women, undoubtedly due to the fact that hospitals in those days were dirty places where patients usually died. As a result, those who provided nursing care were commonly persons who could not find work elsewhere.
   Modern nursing began in the mid-19th century with the appearance of the Nightingale training schools for nurses. In the United States, the Spanish-American War and, later, World War I established the need for more nurses in both military and civilian life. As a result, nursing schools increased their enrollments, and several new programs were developed. In 1920 a study recommended that schools of nursing be independent of hospitals and that students no longer be exploited as cheap labor. Following this, several university schools of nursing were opened. During the depression of the 1930s, many nurses were unemployed, and the number of schools declined. World War II, however, brought about another increased demand for nurses. Since the end of World War II, technological advances in medicine and health have required nurses to become knowledgeable about sophisticated equipment, to learn about an increasing number of medications, and to design nursing care appropriate for the health care delivery system during a period of rapid change.
