Doctor's Day Message From Artemis Hospital Ignites National Dialogue on Compassion, Reform, and Innovation in Healthcare
PNN New Delhi [India], July 1: As the nation commemorates National Doctor's Day, a deeply moving and thought-provoking message from one of India's leading neurointervention specialists is stirring nationwide dialogue. His words, both heartfelt and forward-looking, cut across the boundaries of profession and policy--highlighting not only the triumphs of modern medicine but also the invisible sacrifices and challenges that define India's healthcare landscape. Addressing fellow medical professionals, Dr. Tariq Matin, Director & Chief of Neurointervention at Artemis Hospital, shared a perspective that has quickly gained momentum in public discourse. He reminded the medical fraternity that while technology continues to revolutionize how doctors treat patients, it is compassion and human connection that remain at the very heart of healing. "We've witnessed extraordinary advances in medical science. Procedures that once required complex open surgeries can now be performed with precision through minimally invasive techniques. Yet, a patient may forget the technicalities of the treatment--but they will never forget how their doctor made them feel," he said. Technology May Save Lives, But Kindness Heals This sentiment--"Patients remember kindness more than equipment"--has become the centerpiece of medical forums and healthcare institutions' Doctor's Day conversations. In a profession increasingly driven by digitization, protocol, and scale, the call to recenter the doctor-patient relationship around empathy has struck a powerful chord. According to many healthcare professionals responding to the statement online, it reflects a growing realization that clinical outcomes alone do not define success in medicine. Healing is holistic--and it must include emotional support, human dignity, and communication that instills trust. A Salute to the Silent Warriors of Indian Healthcare The message also highlighted an often-overlooked reality: the resilience of India's frontline medical workers. From rural clinics with limited infrastructure to emergency rooms stretched beyond capacity, thousands of doctors continue to serve in high-stress, under-resourced environments--often with little recognition. During the COVID-19 pandemic and even now, doctors in smaller towns and remote areas have functioned as lifelines for communities, often with inadequate protective gear, overburdened systems, and virtually no downtime. Dr. Matin's words brought their efforts into the spotlight. "These are the unsung heroes who form the backbone of Indian healthcare. They work without the privileges of metros or large institutions but carry the same oath, the same commitment, and often much more responsibility. Their stories matter," the message affirmed. Doctor's Day as a Call for Structural Reform Beyond emotional reflection, the address carried a strong policy tone, pointing to the urgent need for reform at the systemic level. The healthcare ecosystem, it emphasized, must evolve to not only embrace medical advancements but also protect the individuals who deliver care every day. Among the key areas flagged for immediate attention were: * Strengthening public and rural health infrastructure * Legal and physical protections for doctors against workplace violence * Access to mental health support for medical professionals * Transparent grievance redressal systems * Rebuilding public trust through communication, ethics, and accountability "Healthcare is a shared responsibility," the message stated. "We cannot build a healthy nation by simply increasing machines or budgets. We must ensure that doctors feel safe, supported, and heard--only then can they continue to serve with the passion and precision this profession demands." A Message for the Next Generation of Doctors In a heartfelt closing note, the message turned to medical students and young doctors entering the field in an era of both promise and pressure. The advice was not clinical--it was philosophical. "Lead with compassion. Heal with science. Serve with humility. This is more than a profession--it's a lifelong mission to touch lives with purpose." At a time when the healthcare sector continues to battle not just disease but disillusionment, these words are being welcomed as a needed reminder: doctors are not just healers of the body, but stewards of hope. Reactions Across the Country Several leading hospitals, public health voices, and online medical communities have echoed the message. It is being shared across platforms as a wake-up call for empathetic healthcare, as well as a catalyst for conversations around physician well-being, doctor-patient trust, and structural resilience. In a profession where burnout is rising and emotional fatigue is widespread, this year's Doctor's Day message is not just ceremonial--it's transformational. About Doctor's Day National Doctor's Day is celebrated annually on July 1st in India, commemorating the birth and death anniversary of Dr. Bidhan Chandra Roy, physician and second Chief Minister of West Bengal. It is a day to recognize the invaluable contributions of doctors and medical professionals who serve selflessly, often in the most trying circumstances.

Space Available's Jakarta Community Center Redefines Urban Well-Being
Summary Space Available, the Bali-based sustainable design studio and brand, has recently unveiled its ambitious Jakarta Community Center project. This new hub inJakartais designed to be more than just a physical space — it serves as a tangible manifestation of the brand's core philosophy. Deeply rooted in circular design and environmental responsibility, the center aims to foster a vibrant community around the principles of sustainability. Originally designed by renowned Indonesian architectAndra Matin, the structure had undergone multiple transformations over the years, leading to structural inconsistencies and outdated systems. The renovation aimed not only to restore the building but to reimagine its purpose, reviving Kemang's cultural significance while fostering collaboration and creativity. The refurbished center embraces a flexible, evolving interior, treating the space as a large-scale installation rather than a fixed architectural form. Over 11 tons of locally recycled plastic, handcrafted by artisans across Indonesia, were used to construct structural elements, furniture and decorative features. The façade, as well as the interiors, showcase this material innovation by merging sustainability with traditional craftsmanship. Dedicated zones include a conversation pit equipped with plastic recycling machines, upcycling stations for garment repair and handwoven furniture crafted using circular design methodologies. Beyond its architectural transformation, the center functions as a self-care community space. It's built around five core pillars: movement, meditation, learning, listening and nourishing, where visitors can engage in meditation sessions, sound therapy, workshops to cultural gatherings. The facility also includes a meditation room, sound library, reading space, a medicinal restaurant and bar, ensuring that each area offers meaningful interaction rather than traditional retail experiences. Events and educational programs further animate the space, fostering an environment of co-creation and connection. Jakarta Community CenterJl. Kemang Raya.8B 9, RT.9/RW.1, Bangka, Kec.

Avetta Report Investigates Rise in Workplace Fatalities and Safety Drivers that Protect Lives
New insights show significant life-saving impact from compliance, safety audits and long-term safety engagement LEHI, Utah & HOUSTON, May 28, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Avetta®, the leading provider of supply chain risk management (SCRM) software, today announced the inaugural Avetta Insights and Impact Report. The study is a deep dive into the systemic drivers behind fatal workplace incidents based on real-world data from the company's extensive client and supplier network. It also identifies evidence-based strategies that meaningfully reduce fatality rates across the supply chain. According to the National Safety Council (NSC), 5,283 workers died on the job in 2023, amounting to 14 families per day facing the loss of a loved one due to a preventable tragedy. Beyond the human toll, the economic impact of workplace deaths in 2023 reached $7.7 billion, according to an Avetta estimate based on NSC data. "Our commitment to safer, smarter supply chains is unwavering—we believe even a single workplace death is one too many," said Arshad Matin, president, CEO and board member at Avetta. "This report demonstrates the tremendous value of using data, predictive technologies and innovation to prevent fatalities on the job." Key insights from the report: Suppliers that were fully compliant with established safety standards saw a 62% lower fatality rate than non-compliant suppliers (1.19 vs. 3.12), emphasizing the crucial role of prequalification and compliance processes. Suppliers that underwent more than three years of regular safety manual audits experienced a 15% improvement in fatality rates (0.45 vs. 0.53), demonstrating the importance of ongoing evaluation. Organizations involved in Avetta's safety programs for more than 10 years had a 45% lower fatality rate than those with only 2-3 years of involvement (2.04 vs. 3.7), proving that consistent, long-term investment in safety pays off. "While injury rates have steadily declined over the past decade, fatality rates remain unacceptably high," Matin added. "Reversing this trend demands a long-term commitment to proactive, data-driven safety practices, going beyond compliance to build true resilience. We're proud to be at the center of a community of businesses dedicated to raising the standard of safety by focusing on continuously improving." With innovative technology, services and support—and through strategic partnerships with organizations like the NSC and American Society of Safety Professionals—Avetta leads the industry in creating safe, secure and sustainable supply chains. The Avetta Safety Maturity Index, launched in 2024 and informed by NSC best practices, equips organizations to identify risk earlier, strengthen safety systems and reduce the likelihood of serious injuries and fatalities more effectively. As a leading nonprofit safety advocate in America for over 110 years, NSC's mission is to eliminate the leading causes of preventable death and injury, with core focus in the workplace and on roadways. "At the National Safety Council, we know every single workplace fatality is preventable," said Mark Chung, executive vice president of Safety Leadership and Advocacy at the NSC. "Research like the Avetta Insights and Impact Report, combined with data-driven solutions such as the NSC Consultative Safety Journey and the Avetta Safety Maturity Index, empower organizations to take meaningful, proactive steps toward eliminating injuries and saving lives."
