We are pleased to announce our new online register, which is dedicated to preserving the legacy of the remarkable nurses who trained and worked at Mildmay.

Mildmay Hospital was recognised by none other than Florence Nightingale (1820–1910) as one of the first institutions in Britain to train nurses, and over 160 years - and many hundreds of nurses - later, we have continued to deliver training and placements for both nurses and medical and social care practitioners.


Many of the records that prompted us to institute our register were identified on King’s College London's Pioneering Nurses website. The Mildmay directory is very much in its infancy, and the initial list of nurses is far from exhaustive; it merely scratches the surface of our rich nursing heritage.
