International Nurses Day: Celebrating our Palliative Care Nurses
81 Superhero Nurses of Karunashraya
Karunashraya (Bangalore Hospice Trust), Bengaluru
“Nurses are there when the last breath is taken,
Christian Bell
nurses are there when the first breath is taken.
Although more enjoyable to celebrate birth,
It’s as important to comfort in death.”
The 81 Superhero nurses in Karunashraya, a 73-bedded hospice in Bengaluru, epitomize the above mentioned words. These superhero nurses embody compassionate care as they stoically serve the terminally-ill cancer patients and their families.
The selfless service of these noble souls has made Karunashraya a home away from home for the patients’ at the hospice. The team at Karunashraya, remain forever indebted to these virtuous warriors who worked tirelessly through the pandemic to serve those in need; Every day and Every hour!
