National Doctor’s Day: A Day We Acknowledge The Vital Roles Doctors Play In Our Lives
National Doctor’s Day is a day dedicated to recognizing the contributions of physicians to individual lives and communities. It’s a day to express gratitude for their dedication, expertise, and compassion in caring for the sick and promoting good health.
It was first celebrated in Georgia in 1933 by the wife of Dr. Charles B. Almond, a family medical doctor. Mrs. Almond wanted to show appreciation for the work doctors do, and sought to have a day dedicated to honoring them. The chosen date of March 30th commemorates the anniversary of the first use of general anesthesia in surgery by Dr. Crawford Long in 1842.
National Doctor’s Day is an important opportunity to acknowledge the vital role doctors play in our lives. They undertake years of training and sacrifice to acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to diagnose and treat illnesses, alleviate suffering, and improve the quality of life for their patients.
It’s a day to remember the countless hours they spend caring for the sick – often at the expense of their own personal time and well-being. And a day to celebrate their triumphs and recognize the challenges they face in a constantly evolving healthcare landscape.
Celebrations
- Hospitals, clinics, and medical organizations often hold events or offer special gifts and tokens of appreciation to doctors on this day.
- Patients and families can express their gratitude through handwritten notes, cards, gifts, or even taking the time to share positive experiences about their doctors online.
About Our Founder: Dr. Shawn Rowland
Back in 2018, Dr. Rowland, working as a family physician, encountered the harsh realities of medication shortages firsthand, and saw how they affected patient care.
This experience ignited a fire in him, driving him to find a sustainable solution.
His research revealed a shocking truth – over 95% of medication ingredients are manufactured in China and India, leaving the global supply chain vulnerable.
Determined to make a difference, Dr. Rowland set out and pioneered a new path for the pharmaceutical industry, Jase Medical, aiming to revolutionize emergency medication access for all.
His mission was clear: to ensure everyone could have access to vital medications safely, despite supply chain disruptions.
A Vision For Better Healthcare
Jase Medical has become a hub of innovation, constantly finding new ways to help everyone be better prepared medically for the unexpected.
Dr. Rowland’s visionary spirit has inspired us all at Jase Medical to push the boundaries of what’s possible in healthcare.
“The fragile supply chain, coupled with escalating geopolitical tensions leading to pharmaceutical shortages and an increasingly limited supply of healthcare providers, is why Jase Medical exists.”
As Jase Medical continues to grow and evolve, it remains a beacon of hope and preparedness in an unpredictable world. The company’s journey thus far is a story of resilience, innovation, and an unwavering commitment to serving the community.
With its eyes set on the future, Jase Medical is not just responding to the challenges of today but is actively shaping the landscape of healthcare preparedness for tomorrow. And we are just getting started!” – Dr. Rowland.
