Celebrating Our Nurses

May 8, 2026

International Nurses Week is a time to honor the skill, compassion, and dedication of nurses around the world. This week,  we highlight Kim Suo, who started his job at CSC in the post-operative ward in October 2024. Now he is working in the instrument room of the Operating Suite, learning all the different instruments, how to sterilize them, and keep them functional. He likes the experience and hopes to learn to be a scrub nurse soon – helping the surgeons by passing instruments and suture during operations. He enjoys working here because it is a happy place with a good environment.
