title: [Parisian hospital nurses during the First World War].
abstract: The stereotypical image of the nurse caring for First World War soldiers is of a Red Cross volunteer tending to a wounded soldier in a field hospital. In reality, the role played by nurses in hospitals far behind the frontline was just as crucial. This massive contribution of volunteer nurses influenced the process of the professionalisation of nurses in France.
