Historical perspectives of children's nursing
The primary aim of this chapter and its companion PowerPoint presentation is to consider the historical perspectives of children’s nursing, in the UK, since its inception in 1852. To do this, the origins of children’s nursing are explored in the context of the changing concepts of childhood. Details of the fight for registration in the latter part of the 19th century, and of the evolution of children’s nursing in the 19th and 20th centuries, provides the reader with an account of key developments. The final section includes an overview of the educational provision necessary to equip practitioners with the necessary knowledge and skills to care for children and families and the current issues in children’s nursing that inform the curriculum.
