World Nurse Day, celebrated on May 12th each
year, is a profound tribute to the invaluable contributions of nurses globally.
At Link Hospital, we take this opportunity to honour and recognise the
remarkable dedication, compassion, and expertise of nurses who are pivotal in
delivering exceptional patient care.
“Behind every
healing touch, there's a nurse's strength, kindness, and unwavering commitment.
On World Nurse Day, we honour these everyday heroes whose compassion knows no
bounds, making the world healthier and brighter, one patient at a time.”
The
Origin of World Nurse Day
The significance of World Nurse Day dates back to the birth
anniversary of Florence Nightingale, the pioneer of modern nursing. Florence's
groundbreaking work during the Crimean War revolutionized healthcare practices
and emphasized the importance of compassionate nursing care.

The

care and serving as advocates for patients' well-being. They provide emotional
support, educate patients and families, and implement individualised care plans effectively.
Clinical Expertise and Innovation

clinical skills and expertise. From administering medications to performing
