International Prestige

The "Florence Nightingale Lamp" award recognizes professionals who make a tangible difference to the well-being of the population.

Professionals who Inspire

This recognition highlights nurses who, in the midst of challenges, are a source of inspiration for new generations of professionals, encouraging them to participate in training and advanced education programs to help improve health care in the country and raise the standards of Peruvian nursing, as key players in health promotion, disease prevention, and primary care.
