Isabel Hampton Robb Leadership Award

The 2020 Isabel Hampton Robb Leadership Award commemorates Saunders' first nursing author, Isabel Adams Hampton. In 1893, Saunders published, Nursing: Its Principles and Practice, by Isabel Adams Hampton (later Isabel Hampton Robb) which may have been the first medical/surgical nursing textbook in the United States. Miss Hampton was superintendent of nurses and principal of the Training School for Nurses at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland when she wrote this important text.

The $1000 cash award is presented to the current or immediate past student nurses' association state president whose leadership characteristics most resemble those of Isabel Hampton Robb. An organizer and visionary leader, Mrs. Robb was well known for her pioneering work in establishing nursing organizations which became the American Nurses’ Association (ANA), the National League for Nursing (NLN), and the International Council of Nursing (ICN).
