Female Australian Nurses in World War One

When the war broke out in 1914, the Australian government dispatched the first Australian Navy army. Medical department nurses are an integral part of AIF, they are recruited from the Australian Army Nursing Service Protected Area and Civil Care Program. Senior officials tend to train men soldiers rather than female nurses. According to the report, Gen. General Howse (Director of Medical Services Department) said: "Female nurses have little impact on the actual life-saving life in war (as a substitute for completely trained male healthcare).

The role of women in Australia in World War I focused mainly on participation in providing nursing care services. During the First World War, 2,139 Australian nurses served. Because their contribution is more important than was originally anticipated, we respect the women in health professionals more. In December 1914, Julia Grace Wales announced the Canadian program. This aims to establish a conciliation conference consisting of intellectuals from a neutral country working hard to find an appropriate solution for World War I. The plan was submitted to the US Congress, but despite President Wilson 's interest, it failed in the United States.

The role of women in Australia during World War II was greater than during the First World War, which was mainly nurses and other domestic workers. Many women hoped to play an active role in the war and by the year 1940, hundreds of volunteer and paramilitary organizations for volunteer women were founded. Due to the shortage of male recruits, the military was forced to establish women's branches in 1941 and 1942. The traditional role of women is limited to men, but they continue to receive low wages

Early in the 1880s, Australian nurses participated in military care as civilian volunteers (Melbourne University, 2015), but Australian women's participation as a nurse of war began in 1898 and the State of New South Wales Of Australian nursing services. This service consists of the education chief and 24 nurses. According to the performance of the nurse, the Australian military nursing service was founded in 1903 and is managed by the federal government. The Royal Army Care Team (RAANC) in Australia began with the Australian Army Nursing Service (RAANC, n.d.). Since then, Australian nurses have dealt with war, patients, injured, and deceased. They served in Australia, theaters around the world, field hospitals, hospital boats anchored in the sea near the battlefield, and during transport (Australian Government, 2009). Other military opportunities for nurses include the Australian Navy and the Australian Air Force.
