International Nurses Day is celebrated on May 12th at NRI General Hospital. It is the birth anniversary of Florence Nightingale, the founder of modern nursing. The ICN established this day as “Nurses Day” in 1974 to commemorate her contributions to healthcare and to highlight the vital role nurses play in the health system. The 2025 “International Nurses Day” is commemorated under the theme: “Our Nurses. Our Future” by ICN.
