Zhou Meiyu (Chinese: 周美玉) (1910–2001) was a Chinese nurse, known as "the mother of military nursing in China" and "among the most influential Chinese nurses of the early twentieth century". She was the founder of the Army School of Nursing at the Emergency Medical Service Training School in Guiyang, a strong proponent of military nursing during and after the Second Sino-Japanese War and Chinese Civil War, and the first woman in the Republic of China to attain the rank of major general (少將, shaojing). Xu Nanli, an adjunct professor at National Yang-Ming University who studied under her, described her as the "Nightingale of China".
