Alexandra Chief Dame Ethel Hope Matron Nurse Nursing Stamp 1919 Becher
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Dame Ethel Hope Becher, an esteemed figure in the history of military nursing, during her tenure as Matron-in-Chief of the Queen Alexandria's Imperial Military Nursing Service (QAIMNS) from 1910 to 1919. Dame Ethel Hope Becher, who was born in 1864, is depicted in her formal attire, wearing the Order of the British Empire star and the QAIMNS badge on her chest. Her stern yet compassionate expression conveys the gravity of her role as the head of the nursing service during a time of great need. The QAIMNS was established in 1887 to provide nursing care to British military personnel and their families. Dame Ethel Hope Becher took over the position during a period of significant expansion, as the service was called upon to respond to the nursing needs of the British military during the First World War. Under her leadership, the QAIMNS grew from a small organization to one that employed over 10,000 nurses and provided care to soldiers in hospitals and on the battlefield. This photograph is a testament to Dame Ethel Hope Becher's dedication and leadership during a time of crisis. Her legacy as a pioneering figure in military nursing continues to inspire and influence the nursing profession to this day. This image is an essential addition to any collection of military history, nursing history, or women's history.
