Additionally, since most of the fighting took place near their homes, women would often turn their houses into medical shelters where they would “provide medical care to sick and wounded soldiers” (Textbook 116). Many of the women were greatly affected by the conflict of the Civil War as they began to try new jobs as nurses and other medical personnel.
