Dear Colleagues,

Other nightingales sing; our Nightingales write brilliantly in the NIGHTINGALE about how they serve Kauvery’s patients and families.

The stellar piece of writing in this issue is Unknown etiology, thoughtful management, gratifying outcomes by nurses Leema Rebekkal Rosy and Sangeetha from Tennur on Adult Onset Still’s Disease.

Chasing them to the tape at the finish line are nurses Umarani and Vijayalakshmi from Heart City with APLA in a man!

Kanimozhi, Nurse Clinical Educator, writes a deeply moving, inspiring and articulate report on World Organ Donation Day at Hosur.

World Heart Day is only week away. No wonder nurses at Heart City are on a roll and beating away with papers!

Five nurses Revathy, Priya, Ashwina, Ramya Sri and Vaushna Abi from Heart City give a tense beat to beat account of their Approach to Cardiac Arrest.

Also from Nellai, Nurse Educator Marylakshmi writes about Surgery for CSOM.

Marilakshmi never stops at one! She bats on, with Management of a Neck

Step into Tennur any day of the week and you would bump into Pitutary Adenomas! Sahayaselvi and Aarthi write about Trans Sphenoidal Surgery on a 57 years aged woman.

Step into Kauvery Cantonment Hospital and you cannot avoid confronting Superior Mesenteric Artery Thrombosis, ever since COVID hit us in 2020.

It puts long lengths of bowel at risk. Dieticians Snekapriya, Bhuvaneswari and Mahahira Lakshmi write about surmounting the dietary challenges after extensive bowel loss.

Salem is always there in the NIGHTINGALE!

Bini Susan Isaac is a seasoned author who reminds us about World Pharmacist Day on September 25, and recalls the solid service to patients by the silent heroes- the pharmacists!

Indumathi, a Nurse Educator from Salem, loves to post a diagnostic image as often as possible.

Our resident poet at Salem, Balasubramanian is a male Nightingale.

This inning of the NIGHTINGALE is about to close with two major articles.

Jothi and Sudha from Hosur give a blow by blow’ account of a brave battle to win a baby for an eternally hopeful mother, under the watchful eye of Dr. Birundha.

Our last batsman is Mr. Dhanasekar Sundaramoorthy, Head of Business Excellence for Kauvery Hospitals, who writes about another relentless campaign waged by Kauvery Hospitals Salem, Hosur and ECB Bengaluru to raise the 5S Sustenance Levels to Sky High!

Do read and encourage the Kauvery Nightingales!
