About Lillian D. Wald
Lillian D. Wald (10 March 1867 – 1 September 1940)
After attending school, Lillian Wald began studying at the New York Hospital Training School for Nurses in 1883 and then worked as a nurse. In 1891 she took up studies in medicine at the Women’s Medical College. While studying, she was assigned to teach home nursing in the densely populated and poor Lower East Side of Manhattan.
Affected by the conditions there, she decided to quit medical school and devote herself to nursing as her life’s work. She founded the Henry Street Visiting Nurse Service in 1893, which provided medical services to patients who could not financially afford to see a doctor.
This nursing service gave rise to the pioneering social project „Henry Street Settlement“. Within a few years, the organisation provided health care for thousands of New Yorkers. For years, the institution also ran the city’s first public nursing school and summer camps for disadvantaged children.
Her life’s work is an inspiration and a model for us — this is why we have chosen her name for our company.
