In Collaboration with Dr. Vasantrao Pawar Medical College, Hospital & Research Centre

On the occasion of World Mental Health Day, MVP’s Institute of Nursing Education organized an impactful awareness program highlighting the theme “It is Time to Prioritize Mental Health in the Workplace.”

The event began in the college premises, where Principal Dr. Pournimma Naik officially inaugurated the program with an inspiring message on the importance of mental well-being, especially among healthcare professionals. Students presented a role play showcasing real-life challenges related to mental health, stress, and stigma in the workplace. Their performance delivered a strong message and was appreciated by the faculty and students in attendance.

Later, the program was extended to Dr. Vasantrao Pawar Medical College and Hospital, where the students once again performed the role play for the hospital staff, patients, and visitors. This helped spread awareness among a wider audience and emphasized the collective responsibility in caring for mental health.

The event witnessed enthusiastic participation from students, teaching staff, and healthcare professionals. Creative posters and a mental health display added further value to the occasion, reinforcing the message of empathy, support, and emotional resilience.
