Anne-Lise Salling Larsen (25 May 1934 – 20 January 2022) was a Danish nurse and professor. She worked as a development nurse at Bispebjerg Hospital and also at Rigshospitalet Glostrup as a senior nurse from 1965 to 1971, and was the author of a weekly column for the professional monthly journal Sygeplejersken as a nursing editor from 1974 to 1978. Larsen was later a research nurse at the Danish Institute for Health and Nursing Research between 1982 and 1986 and then at the Hvidovre Hospital from 1986 to 1993. She was the first Danish professor of nursing to be appointed in 1993 and worked as Research Council Professor at Odense University until 1998.
Larsen was born on 25 May 1934 in Odense.[1] She was the daughter of the goldsmith Theodor Hofmann Hansen and the business owner business owner Ellen Gøtke.[2] Larsen had one sister. She was educated at the Sct. Knuds Gymnasium, graduating with a Danish high school diploma in 1953.[2] Larsen studied at the Odense Nursing School from 1954 to 1957.[3] The headmistress, Deaconess Karna Jensen, was sceptical about what a girl with a high school diploma wanted in nursing, where students most often had obtained either a secondary school or high school diploma.[2]
