Mumbai: Every year, 12th May is observed as International Nurses Day in honor of Florence Nightingale’s birthday. To recognize the invaluable role of nurses who play a pivotal role in healthcare and provide exceptional patient care with respect, love, and affection, Lilavati Hospital conducted engaging events for these unsung heroes.

Nurses are the pillar of the healthcare system and play a key role in improving the patient’s overall well-being which often goes unnoticed. Aside from administering medications and monitoring vital signs, nurses give emotional support and comfort to patients during their hospital stay. They offer comfort, hope, and empathy in times of agony, trauma, and fear. To honor nurses, Lilavati Hospital has organized special events for nurses who are magicians as they possess abilities to care for and heal patients with swift attention.
“The healthcare system is dependent on nurses, the“Fairies In Aprons” who symbolize the epitome of selfless dedication and compassion. They also educate, advocate, and empower individuals for improved health outcomes. The admiration and appreciation nurses deserve for their support, and commitment should be paramount,” said Mr. Rajiv Mehta, Permanent Trustee at Lilavati Hospital & Research Centre, Bandra Mumbai.
“Nurses are the first point of contact for patients, offering comfort and support in times of need. It is important to applaud nurses for the hard work and sacrifices they make every day to ensure the well-being of their patients. The Hospital’s atmosphere was filled with joy as the nurses were able to relax and participate in karaoke singing, group dancing to a glamour quest, a Nurse Day skit, and an energetic Zumba session followed by prize distribution,” highlighted Dr Niraj Uttamani, Chief Operating Officer at Lilavati Hospital & Research Centre, Bandra.
