The caption reads: “Happy Nurses at Singapore Changi General Hospital Celebrating the Recovery of a Patient with COVID-19”.

In the video accompanied by the Journey’s Don’t Stop Believin ‘music, the nurses exude genuine joy and happiness as they cheer on the patient who is seen holding a piece of paper with the words, “I am finally free of COVIDOS.”

A nurse even jumps up and down as the patient passes by with a wheeled suitcase.

A voice in the background tells the man to “take care” and nods in appreciation.

Netizens have praised healthcare workers for their blatant passion and love for what they do despite these difficult times.

Another video circulated of a healthcare worker leading patients in dance exercises at the Singapore Expo has also lifted the spirits.

It is very encouraging to see some positive signs from both patients and healthcare workers. I’m assuming this is after the gov.sg message that 20k is expected to download in late May 👏 🥰

The health worker is seen dancing enthusiastically despite being dressed in personal protective equipment, while dozens of patient foreign workers are seen following her lead.

Other health workers are also shown dancing in the video.

A Woodlands Health (WHC) campus told The Straits Times that its Expo healthcare team began a series of exercises and activities on Monday (May 11) to improve patient well-being.

These activities are designed to improve the mood of patients and help them stay active while recovering in the community care center.
