[Bertha Pappenheim (1859-1936) and her role in nursing care].
In 1954 the German federal postal service issued a special stamp displaying Bertha Pappenheim (1859-1936) in the series "Helfer der Menschheit" (Helpers for mankind) together with Käthe Wollwitz, Lorenz Werthmann und Johann Friedrich Oberlin. Despite being honoured elsewhere, too, her engagement has not been taken note of by any biographers dealing with the history of nursing. This article which conveys a survey of her life and work therefore concentrates primarily on the importance Bertha Pappenheim gave nursing.
