Florence Nightingale School of Nursing



Florence Nightingale School of Nursing is a unit of Rangammal Memorial Rehabilitation Society. The society was formed in 1991. The founder of the Society is Madam. S.M. Wright who is also the Managing Director of the Hospital and the School of Nursing.

She started the village project with a Van and four boxes, often working under the Tamarind trees of nearby villages around Tiruvannamalai. It was not uncommon for 400 patients to attend in a day. Through her vision and great hard work three big institutions have been established in this backward and socially deprived area. Four hundred staff are working in the organization and approximately seventy thousand patients are treated every year as both inpatients and outpatients. In addition, handicapped people are helped in our Schools and Community Programmes.
