Celebrating International Day of Nurses and Brothers: A Message from President Vyacheslav Kaminsky of the Federal Medical Center
«From Angels of Mercy to Ardent and Self-Confessed: The Evolution of Nursing»
During the Crimean War of 1853-1856, the «Angels of Mercy» were a notable order of nurses. Mrs. Florence Nightingale, a reformer, organizer, and leader, was a prominent figure among them. Today, I would like to extend my congratulations to the medical nurses and brothers of the Medical Guard of Ukraine. You are a dedicated and heroic group of professionals who have faced numerous challenges and persevered to serve your profession until the very end. Your professional power of humanity is your superpower, and you have helped bring new life into the world despite shelling and saved the lives of new little patriots. In the operating room, you are the right hand of surgeons and always stand for the truth, honesty, and humanity. You never fail to care for everyone, even when the question «How are you?» is asked. Thank you for your unwavering dedication and service.
