The Royal British Nurses' Association was founded in December 1887 by Ethel Bedford-Fenwick. It described itself as a union/organisation of nurses for professional objects and campaigned for the establishment of a register of nurses. It wanted the training to last three years with national standards. Alice Ravenhill was the secretary of the association from 1894 to 1897. It set up a Nurses Co-operative, the Chartered Nurses Association, in 1896. In 1905 it employed 120 nurses taking 7.5% of their earnings. It was still in existence as of 2013.

  • Die Royal Britisch Nurses Association (dt. Königlich britischer Verband der Krankenschwestern) ist ein 1887 gegründeter Berufsverband für Krankenschwestern im Vereinigten Königreich. Der Verband wurde auf Initiative von Ethel Bedford-Fenwick gegründet, sie nahm sich dabei die British Medical Association für ärztliches Personal zum Vorbild. Bedford-Fenwick gewann Helena von Großbritannien und Irland als Unterstützerin, die auch die erste Präsidentin des Verbandes wurde. Als Britisch Nurses Association gegründet erhielt der Verband 1881 den Zusatz Royal. Eines der wichtigsten Ziele des Verbandes war die verpflichtende Registrierung von Pflegekräften, analog zu den registrierten Krankenschwestern in den Vereinigten Staaten von Amerika. Nach sechs erfolglosen Versuchen verabschiedete das britische Parlament 1919 schließlich den Nurses Registration Act 1919 (dt. Gesetz zur Registrierung von Krankenschwestern). (de)
  • The Royal British Nurses' Association was founded in December 1887 by Ethel Bedford-Fenwick. It described itself as a union/organisation of nurses for professional objects and campaigned for the establishment of a register of nurses. It wanted the training to last three years with national standards. Princess Christian was the president from its foundation. In 1891, it received the prefix "Royal", and received a Royal Charter in 1892. In a speech she made in 1893, she made clear that the association was working towards "improving the education and status of those devoted and self-sacrificing women whose whole lives have been devoted to tending the sick, the suffering, and the dying". In the same speech, she warned about opposition and misrepresentation they had encountered. Although the Association was in favour of registration as a means of enhancing and guaranteeing the professional status of trained nurses, its Charter with the Privy Council allowed it to maintain a list rather than a formal register of nurses, but as the list had no formal status few nurses joined it, and the campaign for registration continued. The Charter altered the constitution, and Mrs Bedford-Fenwick lost her permanent position. Alice Ravenhill was the secretary of the association from 1894 to 1897. It set up a Nurses Co-operative, the Chartered Nurses Association, in 1896. In 1905 it employed 120 nurses taking 7.5% of their earnings. The Passing of the Midwives Act 1902 encouraged the campaign for registration of nurses. The Association helped to set up the Central Committee for the State Registration of Nurses in 1908. The RBNA gradually went into decline following the Nurses Registration Act 1919; after six failed attempts between 1904 and 1918, the British parliament passed the bill allowing formal nurse registration. In 1925 it had about 5,000 members - around a fifth of the membership of the College of Nursing. It was still in existence as of 2013. (en)
