Speaking as chief guest of the function organised by the FHW Training School, Lamphel RD Wing Complex, health director Dr Chambo Gonmei reminded the graduates that nurses play a crucial role as the backbone of the healthcare system and without them, healthcare facilities would be severely handicapped.

He reminded them that their contributions to the rural healthcare system are vital and much needed.

The director also shared that the health department will push for establishment of a paramedical institute in each district of the state and work towards completing the construction of unfinished healthcare centres.

Presided over by Family Welfare Services director Dr N Hemantakumar, the function was also attended by Manipur Nursing Council registrar Dr A Jamuna and FHW Training School principal Th Sanatombi Devi as guest of honour and chief host respectively.

Certificates were also distributed to exam toppers of the school during the function.
