International Nurses Day is celebrated today

International Nurses Day is celebrated around the world every year on May 12, the anniversary of Florence Nightingale’s birth.

Nurses are often the only health professionals accessible to many people in their lifetime.

Life Suikerbosrand Hospital thanked their nursing staff for their dedication to the profession by spoiling them with a breakfast this morning.

Cora Muller (hospital manager) said as a company it is important to recognise these hard working people who are striving to create the very best experience for their patients. “Life Suikerbosrand Hospital salutes our nurses for living up to our purpose of making life better and placing our patients at the very centre of care,” Cora concluded.
