KUCHING, Sept 6 2026: Women, Family and Community Development Minister Nancy Shukri officiated at the opening of the Women’s Care Room at the Sarawak General Hospital.
The care room is set up to provide a special, comfortable, conducive and more private rest space for female nurses, especially those who are pregnant or need to pump milk while on duty.
The space allows them to take a break and take care of their personal needs before returning to their responsibilities of caring for patients.
Nancy said that healthcare workers are among the frontliners who play an important role in caring for and treating the community.
“Therefore, their welfare and well-being also need to be given attention,”she said, adding that nurses always give a high commitment to ensuring that patients receive the best treatment and care.
“In the busyness of carrying out their duties, they also need a comfortable space to rest and take care of their personal needs.
"The care room is not just a physical facility, but a form of support for the well-being of healthcare workers, especially female nurses who are pregnant or breastfeeding," she said.
