History promotes evolution to be more effective. Making the same mistakes is dangerous. Indigenous peoples were the first health care providers to early Canadian settlers in New France (aka Quebec) First hospital established in Canada Hôtel-Dieu de Québec opened in 1639. Health care in hospitals was provided by nurses to settlers & Indigenous people. Early nurses were Jesuit priests whose mission was to convert Indigenous people to Christianity. Augustine nuns were recruited to provide nursing care. In 1639, the first nursing mission (Hotel Dieu de Quebec) outside the citadel of Quebec was to deal with the smallpox epidemic.
