On Tuesday, 3 February 2026, at Melomed Tokai, we proudly celebrated our dedicated registered nurses who successfully completed a range of professional development short courses. These included the ICU Work-Based Programme, RN Work-Based Programme, and Paediatrics Work-Based Programme, each designed to strengthen clinical skills and enhance patient care across specialised areas.

The celebration also recognised the remarkable achievement of Palisa Lehana, who recently completed her 3-year Nursing Diploma in collaboration with Netcare Education a true testament to perseverance, commitment, and passion for nursing excellence.

We are immensely proud of all our nurses who continue to invest in their professional growth and deliver compassionate, high-quality care to our patients every day. Congratulations to all the nurses who attended and reached this important milestone in their careers.

Real care. Real compassion. Real impact. 🤍

Shehaam’s journey through trauma and recovery at Melomed Tokai is a powerful reminder that healthcare is about more than treatment it’s about listening, patience, and genuine human connection.

From trauma to high care, from nursing staff to security, and a doctor who truly listens this is what patient-centred care looks like. Stories like these inspire us to keep raising the standard of care, every single day.

Thank you for trusting us with what matters most. 🌟

Chest pain isn’t always indigestion and ignoring it could be dangerous.
Sometimes what feels like heartburn, pressure, or discomfort in the chest may actually be a warning sign of a cardiac emergency. Knowing the difference can save your life. Symptoms like chest tightness, pain radiating to the arm, jaw or back, shortness of breath, nausea, dizziness or cold sweats should never be ignored.
Watch to learn when chest pain is your body’s way of saying act fast because when it comes to your heart, every minute matters. ❤️
