Sažetak
Following a retrospective of first aid for the sick provided by unqualified persons, the key changes that took place with the arrival of the Sisters of Mercy and their significance is described. This is followed by the arrival of the first medical nurses and their bedside work with the sick, and of their first preventive healthcare activities. Special attention is given to the person of medical nurse Marija Brozović and her work at the School Health Centre. She would go on to be the founder and first director of the Nursing School, and then the head nurse of the institution and a great reformer of nursing with her introduction of departmental nurses. Emphasis is given to the growing independence of nurses as a vital part of an expert team.
