The oldest records of developmental beginnings of patients? healthcare relate to the first hospital founded by St. Sava at the monastery Studenica in 1199. The profile of the Kosovian girl became the hallmark of nursing profession in Serbia. The first school for midwives was founded in 1899 at the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics of the General State Hospital in Belgrade. However, there were no other schools for nurses in Serbia until the foundation of the School for Midwives of the Red Cross Society in 1021. Until then the healthcare of patients and the injured was carried out by self-taught volunteer nurses with completed short courses of patients? healthcare. The first course for male and female nurses was organized by the Serbian Red Cross at the beginning of the First Serbian-Turkish War in 1876. During wars with Serbian participation in 19th and 20th centuries with Serbian participation, nurses gave a remarkable contribution being exposed to extreme efforts and often sacrificing their own lives. In war times great merit belongs to the members of the humanitarian society the Circle of Serbian Sisters founded in Belgrade in 1903, which was the resource of a great number of nurses who became the pride of nursing profession. Generations of nurses were educated on their example. In 2004 the annual award ?Dusica Spasic? was established which is awarded to the best medical nurse in Serbia. Dusica Spasic was a medical nurse that died at her workplace, when aged 23 years, nursing the sick from variola.

This chapter focuses on how female nurses make sense of their occupations as the perception of their profession changes from gender-biased to gender-neutral. Nursing is one of those rare professions with occupational segregation in favor of females, but one that is changing as more males enter the profession. While there are many occupational segregation studies to explain male and female nurses' perspectives, research on how female nurses reconsider their views about the profession is scarce. Therefore, this chapter will address this change for females by utilizing a conceptual analysis, specifically the cognitive sense-making perspective. Referring to the phases of the cognitive sense-making (ecological change, enactment, selection, and retention), this chapter examines how the meaning of the nursing profession and the meaning of work in general is changing for females.

A study conducted by Northwestern National Life stated that around 40% of workers experienced work-related stress. One of the professions who has a high risk of stress is nursing. This research aims to analyze the differences in stress levels of male and female nurses, employing a quantitative method and a cross sectional approach. There were 73 respondents, all of whom were nurses at X Hospital. Random sampling was used in this research. Chi Square test was carried out to determine the relationship between gender and work stress levels. The results showed that the majority of nurses were women (78.1% or 57 people) and male nurses accounted for the remaining 21.9% (16 people). A higher number of female nurses experience high stress (15.8%) compared to male nurses (12.5%). The result of the analysis of the gender effect on stress levels in X Hospital nurses generated p-value of 0.745 indicating that p value > 0.05. This result shows that there is no significant effect of gender on the stress level of nurses in Hospital X. Accordingly, from the hypothesis tested, it is proven that there is no significant relationship between the gender of nurses and work stress experienced. Keywords: Stress Level, Nurse, Hospital
