Nurses can apply for one primary and up to two secondary areas of contribution: Patient care, nursing leadership, nursing education, social or community service, and research or innovation.

Dr. Azad Moopen, founder-chairman and managing director of Aster DM Healthcare, said: “Being the largest awards for nurses in the world, Aster Guardians Global Nursing Award has been recognised and applauded by the medical fraternity and the public across the globe. After successfully conducting the first award function In Dubai this year, the organising committee decided to have the second edition in Europe next year.

London is considered the ideal venue for many reasons, including being the headquarters of the commonwealth.

We hope this will be a good tribute to the millions of nurses from many countries who have been serving the healthcare systems in various European nations, like the NHS in the United Kingdom. We anticipate a large participation of nurses from across the world, especially Britain.”
