Every year on May 12th, the world comes together to celebrate Nurses Day, recognizing the dedication and vital contributions of nurses all around the world.
Florence Nightingale transformed nursing through her tireless work during the Crimean War, where she emphasized hygiene, compassion, and patient care. Her approach drastically improved survival rates and laid the foundation for nursing as a professional and ethical practice. Often called “The Lady with the Lamp”, she became a symbol of hope and healing.
Today, her legacy lives on in the hands and hearts of nurses across the globe. They continue to uphold the values she championed empathy, resilience, and service.
On this special day, let us not only thank nurses for their invaluable work but also remember the history that shaped the profession into one of the most trusted and essential in the world.
