Final answer:
In 1836, a nursing student at the Kaiserworth Deaconess Institution would primarily learn basic patient care such as washing and changing bed linens, under the supervision of a registered nurse. More advanced skills like administering immunizations, assisting in surgery, and developing care plans were not typical for nurses of that era and developed later in nursing education.
Step-by-step explanation:
The skills a nursing student would learn while attending the Kaiserworth Deaconess Institution in 1836 would be quite different from those learned by students today. In the mid-19th century, nursing education was more rudimentary and focused on practical, hands-on care rather than advanced medical procedures. Therefore, a nursing student in 1836 may learn skills such as C) Washing and changing bed linens, in addition to basic patient care like cleaning and possibly helping with certain basic medicinal preparations. Skills like A) Administering immunizations, B) Assisting in surgery, and D) Developing a plan of care were likely developed more fully in nursing practices later on, especially into the 20th century.
Nursing education in the past was heavily centered on practical bedside care under the direct supervision of a registered nurse, which involved manual tasks and basic patient comfort and hygiene. As nursing evolved, especially after events like World War I where nurses such as those mentioned in The War Diaries of Clare Glass and Nobody Ever Wins a War: The War Diaries of Ella Mae Bongard gained more medical responsibilities, the role of nurses expanded to include advanced treatments and medical care planning. However, this evolution occurred much later than 1836.
