Abstract

In 1870, D.M. Bourneville organized municipal lectures for parisian hospital staff in order to improve their inadequate training. It was carried on with that teaching till 1914, but owing to imperfected knowledge it was compelled to enlarge the project in opening the first nurses school inside "La Salpêtrière (1907). Following the hospital staff reform (1903), a preliminary Commission was settled. That commitee was inspired by british or french experiments (private, parisian and provincial initiatives) for its accomplishement. The opening speech, in 1908, pointed out democratic recruiting and professional feature of the scool. A new career was offered to women where nurses would became physician assistants, devoted to him, but of necessity for their own skills.
