Every year on May 12, the world comes together to celebrate International Nurses Day, recognizing the incredible dedication, compassion, and resilience of nurses. The theme for 2025 — "Our Nurses. Our Future. Caring for nurses strengthens economies." — highlights the undeniable impact that nurses have, not only on individual patient outcomes but also on the sustainability and strength of global healthcare systems.
At Fakeeh University Hospital, we proudly join the international community in honoring the backbone of our healthcare teams: our nurses.
This year's theme emphasizes a critical message — caring for nurses is an investment in the future of public health, workforce stability, and economic resilience.
Nurses are no longer seen as just caregivers — they are clinical leaders, educators, researchers, and advocates. Their roles have expanded across:
They act as a bridge between patients and the broader healthcare system, ensuring continuity of care, safety, and improved clinical outcomes.
Investing in nurses means:
Supporting nursing education, mental well-being, fair wages, and leadership opportunities ensures a stronger and more resilient health system for future generations.
