Nurses Walking in a Snowstorm

Nurses had to endure many hardships, like snowstorms, in order to work and reach patients. They worked for the Nurse's Settlement on Henry Street (later the Henry Street Settlement), established in 1895 by Lillian Wald to provide affordable nursing care on the communal level.
Institution: Henry Street Settlement House, New York City
