Post Graduate Medical Institute and Ameer Uddin Medical College Principal Prof. Dr. Muhammad Al-Fareed Zafar has said that the healthcare profession is incomplete without nurses as in the treatment, taking care and recovery of patients in addition to doctors, the role of nurses is equally important. He added that we have observed that during dengue and corona epidemics, nurses performed excellent services for patients without caring their own lives which have also been recognized at the national and international level. The nurses of LGH have always been seen in the forefront in this regard who have kept the flag of their field high by serving humanity.

On this occasion, the speakers lauded the services of Anwar Sultana, while Ms. Anwar Sultana and thanked the organizers of the event.
