Duplication[edit]

Does this list really add anything over and above the category? --Daveb 12:39, 1 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I think so. This list also gives a short description of the nurse, which is valuable.--Ezeu 13:02, 1 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with Ezeu. It is the same as the lists of people from different states and they have categories too. Short synopsis of each nurse. Maltmomma ^(chat)

Also there are several cheif nursing officers - of which country and period? Are they really prominent or merely titled? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tradimus (talk • contribs) 15:38, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Discrepancy[edit]

Both Ethel Bedford-Fenwick and Ellen Dougherty, according to this list and to their articles, are the "first Registered Nurse". If anyone can help clarify this obvious discrepancy, please do. --Ezeu 00:09, 5 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
