For over eight years, Sister Praveena Banu has been a constant presence at the Thalassemia and Sickle Cell Day Care Centre at RDT Hospital, caring for more than 163 children and their families. She knows each child not just by name, but by their journey, offering reassurance through every step of treatment.
Whether answering late-night calls, supporting families on weekends, or arranging blood donors during shortages, Sister Praveena goes beyond her role to ensure no child is left waiting for care. Her dedication has made her a trusted source of comfort for countless families.
To the children she serves, Sister Praveena is far more than a nurse, she is a guardian, an advocate, and a symbol of compassion. Her story reminds us that behind every patient journey are healthcare professionals whose quiet acts of kindness make all the difference.
