Mumbai, May 12, 2024 – In a heartfelt celebration of dedication, compassion, and clinical excellence, Wockhardt Hospitals marked International Nurses Day across its facilities in Mira Road, Mumbai Central, Rajkot, and Nagpur.
As part of the celebrations, Wockhardt Hospitals Ltd launched “My Patient, My Idea”—a first-of-its-kind initiative aimed at empowering nurses to share innovative ideas that enhance patient care, improve experiences, and reduce healthcare costs.
Recognizing nurses as frontline problem solvers, the initiative echoes the 2025 International Nurses Day theme, “Caring for Nurses, Strengthening Economies.”

The celebration began with nurses uniting to sing the Wockhardt Anthem and recite the Nursing Pledge, reinforcing their shared mission of patient care. A special tribute was paid to nursing leaders, recognizing their tireless service and leadership.
The events also featured creative competitions such as poster drawing, singing, and talent showcases, offering nurses a platform to express themselves beyond their professional roles.
These interactive sessions helped nurture camaraderie, creativity, and a sense of belonging among nursing teams.
In a heartfelt gesture, nurses who achieved significant service milestones were awarded gold coins by the respective hospital Chiefs, symbolizing Wockhardt’s deep appreciation for their long-standing commitment and impact.
