An enthusiastic Filipino nurse, Dorina Santos, was awarded Nurse of the Year during the Dar As Sihha Medical Center (DASMC) celebration of the International Nurses Day 2013.
Dorina, a native of Baguio City, who has been working at Dammam for six years received her glass trophy and a cheque of 5,000 Riyals (P 54,000) from Dr. Siddeek Ahmed, DASMC Managing Director. Dr. Ahmed commended Santos for her exemplary service and all the Filipino nurses for their zeal at work.
"Congratulations to Dorina Santos. She, and other Filipino nurses, are best workers, dedicated, and I believe they are the future of the world. They are humble and sincere on their job," Dr. Ahmed said.
In her speech, Santos thanked the management for the award and the opportunity to work with them.
"Na-shock ako kasi hindi ko siya ini-expect na ako yung bibigyan nila ng award dahil simpleng nurse lang naman po ako. Karaniwang nurse na ginagawa lang po ang hinihingi sa akin sa araw-araw na aking trabaho," Dorina Santos said.
