HERO
(Hari Dokter Nasional)
SCOME CIMSA UI
National Doctor’s Day is celebrated every 24th of October and is regularly celebrated by SCOME CIMSA UI. To raise awareness of National Doctor’s Day, SCOME CIMSA UI held an online talkshow via Instagram Live and challenge through InstaStory before that day as the pre-event program.
The speaker for Instagram Live talk show was dr. Eva Sri Diana, Sp.P from IDI South Jakarta and the moderator was dr. Bagus Radityo Amien (Vice Local Coordinator CIMSA UI 2015-2016). The Instagram talk show was focusing on the struggle of doctor in this COVID-19 pandemic and started from 1 p.m. until 2 p.m. at CIMSA UI Instagram official account. The challenge through InstaStory was held on 19th – 21st October 2020 by uploading message for doctor to stay strong during the pandemic because they are one of the front line fighters against the COVID-19 pandemic. The total of challenge would be exchange for personal protective equipment to the hospital that need a personal protective equipment supply.
Last year, the main event of National Doctor's Day celebrated by SCOME CIMSA UI was by giving flowers directly to doctors at the University of Indonesia Hospital and Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital as well as setiing up a photobooth using a snelli and a doctor's coat. However, this year was different because of the COVID-19 pandemic, which required everyone to keep their distances and demanded doctors to work harder. The doctors have been fought against the pandemics for 7 months, so this year SCOME CIMSA UI celebrated National Doctor's Day by holding a HERO event with the theme ‘Doctor's Struggle during the COVID-19 Pandemic’. The obligation to maintain physical distance did not stop SCOME CIMSA UI from appreciating the doctors.
SCOME CIMSA UI implements HERO by giving virtual thank you cards to doctors and alumni, not only greeting cards, but flowers are also given without meeting in person. Apart from that, HERO also held a meeting with dr. Astuti Giantini, Sp.PK, MPH, as the main director of the University of Indonesia Hospital through Zoom Meeting. She really appreciated this HERO event, she hoped that the virtual thank you card and flowers given could increase the spirit of doctor in fighting this COVID-19 pandemic.
