One of the reasons Lystra Gretter wrote the Nightingale Pledge was that she hated the fact that many people did not respect nurses and wanted her students to have a sense of purpose and pride in their career. Here, the third option is the right answer.

Explanation:

Lystra Gretter, inspired by Florence Nightingale's work, along with the Committee for the Farrand Training School for Nurses in Detroit, Michigan, created the Nightingale Pledge in 1893. Gretter's idea of creating this pledge was to give credit to the work of her committee. This pledge is a statement of the ethics and principles of the nursing profession. It is practised only in the USA. In 1935 it was revised again and Gretter added more emphasis to the profession by including the oath of becoming a "missioner of health" who is dedicated to the progress of "human welfare." In recent years, the pledge has been revised where the nursing profession is promoted to be independent with its particular ethical standards.
