Introduction July 28, 1914 – November 11, 1918. World War 1, the First World war which is also known as the Great War. It was a miserable and bloody affair during this time (Medicine, 1993). The time in a World War 1 hospital were very tough. The men and women who were working in the hospitals cared for the armed forces who had terrible injuries with very little supplies and equipment compared to what we have in today’s health care facilities. Less than 1 year into the Great War there were more than 318,000 casualties who suffered, 120,000 ended in death (Medicine, 1993). During World War 1 the Medical Corps copied parts of the French and English care system and arranged medical volunteer staff to care for the casualties (Medicine, 1993). With 403 volunteer nurses and about 170 reserve nurses they were prepared for the worst to be sent in (Nursing and Medicine, 2015). At the beginning of the war there were nearly 160 nurses who had volunteered, nearing the end of the Great War it rounded out to nearly 1400 nurses had volunteered in being a major contributor into the health care facility at war (Nursing and Medicine, 2015).

These individuals have greatly fought for the lives today and the lives then. Health Care in World War 1 has a large impact on today’s society. Caring for Soldiers and Casualty Clearing Stations Infection with in the soldiers was a serious case. Doctors and medical care volunteers with in the health care facilities used all possible tools and chemicals to prevent the soldiers from getting infections in their wounds (Wounding, 2015). After soldiers were done being treated in the trenches, they would then be taken to the nearest hospital (Triage, 2015). Hospitals were set up in any buildings they could find to care for the wounds. Once being admitted to a Base Hospital, many of the soldiers had a very good chance of survival, while others did
