Dr. Azad Moopen, Founder Chairman, Aster DM Healthcare, commented, “Over the past 50+ years of my journey in healthcare, one truth has remained constant: the strength of any healthcare system lies in the hands of its nurses. Their commitment, resilience, and compassion deserve far greater recognition. The Aster Guardians Global Nursing Award was born from a deep sense of gratitude – to honour those who stand as the backbone of care and to inspire the next generation to join this noble profession. It remains one of the most meaningful initiatives of my life, because to empower nurses is to strengthen the very soul of healthcare.”
The award’s legacy includes previous winners like Naomi Ohene Oti, a pioneering oncology nurse from Ghana whose work has transformed cancer care and education across Africa, along with other nurses from Kenya, the UK, and the Philippines, reflecting the award’s truly global spirit.
