This year is an extraordinary year as we start the year battling COVID-19.

Our 41st issue of MyAlvernia focuses on how we manage it together. It was a privilege for all of us at Mount Alvernia Hospital to play a part in complementing the national healthcare effort in the fight against the pandemic (pg 11).

This year also marks the International Year of the Nurse and the Midwife by the World Health Organization (WHO). We celebrate the contributions by our nurses and midwives. (pg 20).

Stents are commonly used as one of the treatments for heart diseases. Our cardiologist shares its effectiveness and evolution over the years (pg 28).

Finally, the nutrition a child receives will affect on how the body develops and functions. It can also decrease the risk of certain diseases (pg 36). Happy reading!
