Reports of the sufferings of the wounded in the front created anger in Britain. In response, the government appointed Florence Nightingale to hire female nurses to work in the military hospitals in the front. Florence arrived in Crimea with thirty-eight nurses. At first ,the doctors did not believe that women could help. But in fact, the nurses did make a difference. By day, nurses cleaned the wards and cared for the soldiers.
