Guangxi nurse's dedication brings her recognition

Du Liqun is occupied with her nursing routine, as well as preparations for the upcoming 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China to be held in Beijing.

Serving as head nurse of the AIDS department at the Nanning 4th People's Hospital in the Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region, the 52-year-old was one of the five Chinese nurses awarded the Florence Nightingale Medal in 2015 by the International Committee of the Red Cross.

Since her graduation in 1984, she has been engaged in nursing infectious disease patients.
