Celebrating Compassionate Care
Dibyaa Maharjan works in the Acute Stroke Unit at the Royal Berkshire Hospital, where she is an invaluable member of the hospital’s stroke team. Her compassion extends far beyond her patients, touching the lives of colleagues and peers through her kindness, empathy and unwavering professionalism.

Dibyaa has also been a true angel to patients from Reading’s large Nepalese community. Many older patients face language barriers that can make communicating with healthcare professionals particularly challenging, even when translation services are available. These difficulties can become especially distressing when families are dealing with serious illness or end-of-life situations.

On countless occasions, Dibyaa has gone above and beyond her role to speak with patients and their relatives in their own language, offering comfort, understanding and reassurance during some of life’s most difficult moments. Her presence helps ensure that patients and families feel heard, respected and supported, bringing dignity and compassion when they need it most.

Her kindness extends equally to her colleagues, making her a valued and much-loved member of the team.

Dibyaa truly shines like a star. This recognition is richly deserved and celebrates her exceptional contribution to compassionate care, her patients, their families and everyone fortunate enough to work alongside her.
