For more than 160 years, Mildmay nurses have cared for people on the margins of society. Their names, stories and achievements deserve to be remembered.
Mildmay Hospital was recognised by none other than Florence Nightingale (1820–1910) as one of the first institutions in Britain to train nurses. Since then, many hundreds of nurses have passed through our doors. Today, over a century and a half later, we continue to provide training and placements for nurses, and for medical and social care practitioners, building on that pioneering tradition.
Many of the records that inspired this register were identified on King’s College London's Pioneering Nurses website. Our directory is still in its early stages and the first list of names is far from complete. It only begins to hint at the depth and breadth of Mildmay’s nursing heritage.
