Smart Parents Safe Kids campaign

Columbia Asia Hospitals, in collaboration with the parenting website parenting2u, organized a series of talks on children safety at CAHBR recently. This event kicks off a nationwide campaign themed "Smart Parents, Safe Kids". 

The aim is to educate parents and caregivers on the importance of children's safety and also highlight the hidden dangers found at home, the parks and in the water.

Given the fact that the ortho surgeons deal a lot with children's fracture, guess who was honoured with the chance to talk on playground safety?..

In appreciation of our Nightingales - HAPPY NURSES' DAY

International Nurses' Day is celebrated between 6-12 May every year. 

CAHBR had a celebration on the 11th of May this year- where the agenda was "speech, makan and more makan":P

Ehem.. on a more serious note - this year's theme was "Closing the Gap: Increasing Access and Equity". The International Council of Nurses notes that there are still some areas of the population that has minimal or non existent access to health care - they believe that nurses, as a frontliner in the provision of healthcare, have an important role in bridging the gap to reduce health inequities and providing better access to healthcare for the general population- hence the theme for this year's International Nurses' Day.

okay, enough of the ceramah dudes! on to the pics..
