Apex Health Celebrates International Nurses Day Across All Its Hospitals
On International Nurses Day, Apex Health, a subsidiary of Estithmar Holding, joined the international celebration under this year's theme:
'Our Nurses. Our Future. Caring for nurses strengthens economies.'
Across its hospitals in Qatar, Iraq, Libya, the organization celebrate the nurses who form the foundation of every patient journey, those who show up every day not just with clinical skill, but with empathy, resilience, and patient care.
'Nurses play a
pillar
role in the success, strength and patient journey at every hospital,'
said Jose
ph
Hazel, CEO of Apex Health.
'They're often the first point of contact for patients and the steady presence throughout their care journey. At Apex Health, we recognize that our nurses are key to delivering safe, consistent, and trusted care. That's why we invest in their growth, listen to their insights, and we make it a priority to ensure they know their work is seen, valued, and deeply appreciated.'
The day was filled with meaningful moments across Apex Health's network,
in Qatar, Iraq, Libya.
Each hospital marking the occasion in its own way. At The View Hospital in Qatar, the focus was on leadership in nursing and how it shapes a culture of excellence. The Korean Medical Center joined in with heartfelt staff recognition moments, while in Iraq, both Al Nasiriya
Teaching hospital
and Al Imam Al Hassan Al Mujtaba hospital held full-day events filled with workshops, team building, and peer appreciation. In Libya, the Misrata Heart & Cardiovascular Center highlighted the unique role of cardiac nurses through forums and wellness activities — all celebrating the people at the heart of care.
And because recognition matters, Apex Health has embraced the
DAISY Award
for Extraordinary Nurses. This program honors nurses who go above and beyond in delivering compassionate, skillful, and patient-centered care. By spotlighting individual stories of
impact and dedication, the DAISY Award serves as a powerful reminder of the human side of healthcare — and the profound difference a single nurse can make in a patient's life.
Apex Health continues to grow across the region, one thing remains constant, strong nursing teams are essential to delivering meaningful, sustainable care. That's why the company continues to invest in their development through training, recognition, and support systems that help them lead with confidence.
International Nurses Day is a moment to empower nurses, because the future of healthcare depends on the people delivering it every day.
