• Once again, Hospiten celebrates International Nursing Day, consolidating its position as one of the most important days for the hospital network.

Santa Cruz de Tenerife, May 12, 2025. Nursing plays a fundamental role in healthcare. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), this healthcare-oriented discipline is a profession that encompasses the autonomous and collaborative care of people of all ages, as well as families and communities, both healthy and sick.

May 12 is celebrated as International Nurses Day, an annual commemoration promoted by the International Council of Nurses. This date was chosen to coincide with the birth of Florence Nightingale, considered the mother of modern nursing. For this reason, Hospiten once again joins this tribute with the aim of recognizing and highlighting the work of nursing professionals.

Hospiten's team of professionals performs various essential functions that cover many areas in each of its centers in Spain, Mexico, the Dominican Republic, Jamaica and Panama. These include, among others, the care function, which involves direct patient care by administering medication, monitoring vital signs and assisting in medical procedures, as well as administrative, teaching and research functions.

This has been a sustained commitment of the hospital network over the years, aware of the importance and impact of its work in the healthcare sector. As a token of gratitude, Hospiten has presented its nursing staff with a gift in recognition of their dedication and daily effort.
