International Nurses Day 2023: Recognizing Their Sacrifice

The nursing workforce is one of the biggest and most significant groups in the healthcare industry. It is a challenging profession, particularly in low-income areas with limited resources and people due to the nature of the job. However, medical personnel continued to perform their jobs under unthinkable conditions during the pandemic. On May 12, the occasion of Florence Nightingale’s birth, the world celebrates International Nurses Day. She was nicknamed the “Lady with the Lamp,” and many regard her to be the creator of modern nursing. Even now, she continues to serve as an illustration of the significance of the field of nursing. On this day, we honor the tireless efforts and invaluable contributions made by our nurses by examining some of the issues they face on a daily basis.

Despite the fact that hospitals are constantly adapting their procedures and making new technological developments, they are still required to fulfill the demands of both the management and patients, all while providing care that is ever more complicated. WaxWel Paraffin Bath Unit is specially designed and ideal for continuous use in high-traffic clinics. As a direct consequence of changing technology, nurses frequently characterize their working days as hectic, unpredictable, and psychologically and emotionally taxing. These constitute a few of the causes why a career in nursing is associated with a high number of cases of stress related to work, cases of job discontent, and cases of poor individual wellness. However, ACG Medical Supply has a stock of medical supplies that not only is easy to use but also makes the life of a nurse easier. On this nurse appreciation day, we are offering gift hampers for nurses at ACG Medical Supply for all the nurse practitioners.

It is largely ignored that there is a significant lack of hospital staff, which when combined with the requirement to offer more complicated care to patients with chronic diseases. This not only places a significant amount of burden on nurses but also threatens their personal health. The management expects them to focus more on patient care at the expense of personal care, which makes their daily and personal life even more difficult.

Heavy workload could have an impact on the quality of healthcare provided as well as patient security, among the many of which is the inability of nurses to engage in social interaction with their patients, which could make them more susceptible to making errors. Moreover, when they are involved in a heavy workload it is also difficult for them to provide personal care not only to their parents and children but also to themselves. With various products from ACG Medical Supply, the company aims to celebrate nurse appreciation week. On this world nurses day, it is time to recognize that they practice their professional life under life-threatening conditions, which requires them to keep themselves protected at all times. CPR LifeMask in Keychain Bag, with an anti-viral filter, provides them with high protection during their work hours.

When the COVID-19 pandemic hit the world, healthcare workers literally risked their lives to protect the lives of thousands on a daily basis. They volunteered themselves at the frontline, distributing Pediatric Aerosol Masks and disposable face mask, working day and night without any break. However, as the pandemic mellowed, the world quickly forgot the sacrifices that they made. They worked extra hours without extra pay.

The excerpt from Walt Whitman’s poem “The Wound Dresser” perfectly sums up the godly work that our nurses do. “One turns to me his appealing eyes—poor boy! I never knew you, Yet I think I could not refuse this moment to die for you, if that would save you.” A complete stranger, risking their life to save the life of another stranger, is nothing short of God’s work.

ACG Medical Supply wishes Happy Nurses Day 2023, to all the men and women who have put their lives on line to save thousands of innocent lives during the pandemic. It also celebrates and recognizes their sacrifice and appreciates them for putting others’ lives before theirs. The gift hampers for nurses at ACG Medical Supply are just a small gesture to show our gratitude for their selfless service to society.
