[InternationalNursesDay] Caring extends beyond the hospital

12 May 2016

The role of nurses doesn't stop when they leave work; rather they continue to show the same care and attention to their families and those in their communities as they do during their working hours.

To highlight the role of nurses on International Nurses’ Day, a day chosen as a global tribute to the profession that coincides with Florence Nightingale’s birthday, a Nursing Excellence Award recipient is chosen at each of Mediclinic Southern Africa's hospitals

“Mediclinic’s Nursing Excellence Award holds special significance because nominations are made by nursing peers for those who embody these values and ensure the best possible patient experience.”

“While not everyone can receive an award, I would like to extend my personal thanks to each nurse for making Mediclinic the world-class hospital organisation it is. The amount that our nurses do and how they do it makes all the difference to their colleagues and patients,” said Estelle Coustas, nursing executive, Mediclinic Southern Africa.
