An annual Health Awards ceremony was held at the Everest Hotel in Kathmandu on the evening of Sunday 22nd July. This was sponsored by a national health magazine, “Swasthya Khabar Patrika” and was broadcast live on Nepal TV. It was almost like a mini Oscar awards ceremony! Eight different people received an award to recognize their contribution to specific areas of health in Nepal.
“And the award for the Best Hospital goes to… United Mission Hospital Tansen.”
It was a proud moment for Rachel Karrach, as the Tansen Hospital Director, to go up on the stage and receive the award from the Minister of Health on behalf of all the staff at the hospital who work so hard. She was also able to share for a couple of minutes on live TV about the hospital and its work. We are delighted for all in Tansen and proud also, that UMN’s almost 60 years of service there was recognized.
Well done, Tansen!
