NMNC 3110 Nursing Concepts Exam 1 Practice 2026 – Comprehensive Prep Guide

Clara Barton is best known for founding the American Red Cross. She helped establish a U.S. national organization in 1881 to coordinate disaster relief, civilian nursing, and emergency response, and she served as its first president. This fits because the American Red Cross is the American chapter of the global Red Cross Movement, started in the United States by Barton, distinct from the international leadership established earlier by Henry Dunant (the International Committee of the Red Cross). The other options refer to different parts of the broader movement or are not correct names for the organization Barton created.
