Pune: "Both mother and nurse are symbols of service and dedication. A mother's contribution to child development and a nurse's contribution to patient care is invaluable. The existence of these two is at the top of everyone's mind. Their work cannot be compared or graded & it is incomparable and invaluable too," said Sushama Chordiya, Vice President & Secretary of Suryadatta Education Foundation. 

The Suryadatta Institute of Health Sciences enthusiastically celebrated Mother's Day and Nursing Day. This program was organized under Prof. Dr. Sanjay B. Chordiya, Founder and President of the Suryadatta Education Foundation. The program started by saluting the image of Florence Nightingale. Advisor of various nursing colleges, S. Hrishikesh was the chief guest for the program.

Suryadatta's Associate Vice President Snehal Navalakha, Chief Development Officer Siddhanth Chordiya, Chief Operating Officer Akshit Kushal, Director Prashant Pitaliya, Shital Phadake, Rohit Sancheti, Principal Dr. Simi Retharekar, Sayali Pandey, Hemant Jain, Savita Matane, Nayna Godambe, Roshani Jain, Maruti Marekari, Batu Patil, Netra Deshpande & others were present on the occasion. Prashant Pitaliya gave the introductory remarks. Dr. Simi Retharekar expressed their views. Snehal Navalakha gave the vote of thanks.

S. Hrishikesh said, "It is a day to honor every nurse in the world who works round the clock for patient care. The birthday of the founder of modern nursing, Lady Florence Nightingale, is celebrated as World Nurses Day. Despite growing up in a wealthy family, Florence Nightingale dedicated her life to patient care. She brought prestige to the field of nursing. On Mother's Day, gratitude is expressed towards the mother. Combining these two days is a fortune for us."

Prof. Dr. Sanjay B. Chordiya saluted all mothers and nurses and said, "Suryadatta College of Nursing, Paramedical Science and Technology is starting from 2024-25. We are currently tied up with more than 12 hospitals, and this will give the hands-on experience to the students. Along with nursing other courses will be run in this institution. This will help to create the trained manpower needed to enable medical services.
