Question 1 of 5
She saw the role of nursing as having charge of somebody's health based on the knowledge of how to put the body in such a state to be free of disease or to recover from disease
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Florence Nightingale viewed nursing as managing health by optimizing conditions e.g., hygiene, nutrition for recovery or prevention, as per her Environmental Theory. This quote reflects her Crimean War work, reducing mortality via sanitation. Henderson focused on 14 needs aiding independence, not directly 'charging health.'

Nightingale's legacy knowledge-driven environmental adjustments matches the description, cementing her as modern nursing's founder with this vision.
