Washing and changing bed linens, mopping floors, and housekeeping tasks were included as part of
T T T T T T T T T T T T T T T
the nurse’s education. Immunizations did not exist at that time in history, and surgery was

uncommon and very primitive with frequent poor outcomes. Thus assistants were rarely required and
T T T T T T T T T T T T T T
not part of nursing school. Plan of care considerations were not used until after the mid 1900s.
