Naushad Alam, IPS, DIG Personnel, Jharkhand, in his speech, mentioned that the nursing profession is a symbol of selflessness, flexibility, and a strong commitment to caring for those in need. Nursing is not just a job; it is a profession that requires a unique combination of knowledge, skills, and empathy. Nurses are the backbone of the healthcare system, providing round-the-clock care and assistance to patients during medical emergencies. They possess an in-depth understanding of human anatomy, physiology, and the complex workings of the human body, which helps them assess patients, diagnose, and administer appropriate treatment. However, their role extends far beyond medical expertise. They are caregivers, counselors, and educators, guiding patients and their families through the complexities of illness and recovery.
The guest of honor, Sayeed Ahmed Ansari, Senior Advisor, Medanta, Abdur Razzaque Ansari Memorial Weavers Hospital, said, “I feel honored and proud to know about your profession, my fellow nurses, and I hope that you will continue to maintain the highest standards of excellence. Your tireless efforts and compassion make a profound difference in the lives of countless individuals every day.”
Zeenat Kausar, Secretary of Haji Abdur Razzaque Educational Society, stated, “Nursing is not just a profession; it is a way of life. It requires a deep understanding of ethical principles, respect for human dignity, and a dedication to advocating for the good health of patients. Undoubtedly, nurses successfully fulfill this moral guideline within the healthcare system and ensure that the services provided to patients should always be of the highest priority.”
