The nurse registration movement in Great Britain.
This historical investigation focuses on the early nurse registration movement in Great Britain and the problems encountered by British nurses involved in the movement. Events in Great Britain enlightened American nurse leaders and guided their struggle for registration and licensure. Although the registration movement in the United States began 16 years after the British movement, American nurses were successful in achieving their goals well in advance of their British counterparts.
