On this International
Nurses Day, Tuesday 12th May, we want to celebrate with appreciate all our
noble nurses who work hard every day, while the Nurses community today is
waging war universally against COVID-19, a foe as terrifying as any in the
recorded human history.
Grappling with the
pandemic and all its challenges, however, the nurses as well as doctors deserve
special appreciation in their efforts in these Covid times. They
are wonderfully doing their duties that exchange people’s lives each day.
Here, some senior
nurses in their nursing career would like to share their concern about the
COVID crisis: -Nurses from around and
beyond the city highlighted their hopes by sharing their concern about this
pandemic COVID-19 crisis: One of the Nursing Award winners Mrs. Ancy Sebastian
of Coral Hospital, Indore says: “In spite of rising number of Covid-19
patients, I keep on my record that I am still going for duty, and did not skip
even a single shift. When I give injection to patients, I always try to plant
my smile at the tip of the needle or at the heart of the patients”.
Mrs. Sheeba George of Asian
Institute of Infertility Management, Indore shares: “It’s a time of great
stress and uncertainty still nurses are rising to the occasion. Even during
this pandemic, we are the front-line warriors and are facing innumerable
challenges like long working hours, lack of proper sleep and rest and shortage
of personal protective equipments and endless mental and emotional stress. Yet,
the nursing community makes a lot of comprises and sacrifices in their personal
and family lives for the well-being of the society amidst the Covid crisis”.
Mrs.Thressiamma
George, the Nursing Excellence Award winner, having 38 years of experience in
nursing dedication, who works in Bose-Sirs hospital, Anickad, Kerala, shares:
“Despite the Covid crises, I am going to the hospital by walking over 2 kilometers to and fro to perform my duty to the best of
my abilities and with devotion. So far, I have not taken a single leave during
the Covid times”.
In light of the above
sharing by some of the nurses from their hearts, let us salute our nurses with
all our hearts and spirits. We may call this 2020, as the International Year of
doctors & nurses, and all other front-line workers in this Covid crisis, as
we celebrate the International Nurses Day!.
