Stating that patient service is God’s service, noted social activist Meenakshi Patil has stated that nurses are nothing less than God’s incarnation and a divine gift to humanity. She was speaking at a public function to celebrate the International Nurses Day at Arihant Hospital here. Noted ophthalmologist Dr Madhuri Dixit presided over the function.

“Nurses play a major role in giving new life to patients by shouldering the burden of patient care. This is a selfless service. While they take care of their family, the nurses take care of the patients with equal commitment and devotion, hence they are God’s best gift to humanity,” Patil asserted.
