To make the competition fun and engaging, awards like Best Nurse for each department, Star performer, Best Nurse In-charge, Best Supervisor were given away. A singing and dancing contest was also held and prizes were given away to the winners.
“Nurses are an ineluctable part of the healthcare fraternity. They take care of the patients and act as their strength and moral support throughout their time at the hospital. Day or night, the nurses are always at the patients’ service. We at Fortis Hospitals ensure to create a viable and excellent working atmosphere for our nurses so that they can perform their duties, both personal and professional, to the fullest. Through such initiatives we intend to appreciate their persistent efforts and services rendered to our hospital and thank them for being a significant part of our institution,†said Mr. Vijayrathna V, Zonal Director, Fortis Hospitals.
