Commenting on the initiative, Smt. Sheila Dikshit, Hon'ble Chief Minister of Delhi said, "Nurses form the backbone of the healthcare delivery system and lead the way in improving the health of the world. I commend Fortis for giving the nursing community a platform to share their views and best practices on nursing care. Such forums will be beneficial to the medical fraternity and to the general public, which depends on them for their health and safety." She further added, "We must recognise the nurses for their exemplary performance and invaluable contributions to the healthcare delivery services. We should institute an award to honor them."."
According to Mr. Shivinder Mohan Singh, MD, Fortis Healthcare (India) Ltd, "Nursing is very important in healthcare delivery and most critical to optimise patient care. It is an evolving profession which requires diverse skill sets and knowledge, for improving delivery and performance. This summit is an excellent initiative for nurses to meet nursing leaders from different hospitals in India and abroad, compare nursing roles and begin a relationship that will benefit patients across geographies. I wish and hope that we are able to create more platforms to debate issues on nursing and evolve this profession to serve society, when they are in the greatest hour of need."
Mr. Aditya Vij, CEO, Fortis Healthcare (India) Ltd. said, "'The International Nursing Summit is a forum for Nurses, who are a critical resource for healthcare delivery, not only in the hospital or ambulatory treatment facility but also in community or home-based care. The summit reinforces Fortis' role in bringing best medical practices to India."
The summit offered a unique platform for delegates to share their knowledge and expertise on current and emerging trends in international patient safety. The range of topics under discussion addressed ways to improve the knowledge base, systems and processes; while fostering a professional work culture and team collaboration for nurses to maintain high quality in patient care and safety.
