Understanding nurses' dedication

In South Africa, nurses form the backbone of healthcare, working demanding 12-hour shifts while earning between R316,800 and R701,294 annually, depending on their experience and specialization.

Their role involves everything from patient care to medical procedures and extensive documentation. The surprise celebration recognizes the challenging nature of nursing, which requires a four-year bachelor's degree and registration with the South African Nursing Council (SANC).
