Scutari Hospital, Turkey, 1857. Scutari was the main British military hospital during the Crimean War of 1854-1856. The British public had been scandalised by newspaper reports of the appalling conditions at the hospital, where more men were dying of disease and infected wounds than were actually being killed in action. As a result, the Secretary of State for War asked Florence Nightingale (1820-1910) to go to Scutari to take charge of nursing at the hospital.
