Salma Al Sharhan, who was also dubbed as the UAE’s Florence Nightingale, was admitted to the Obaidallah Geriatric Hospital a few days ago, as she was suffering from age-related diseases, the official source at the Ras Al Khaimah Medical Zone said.
Her death came one week after a decision by the Board of Trustees of the Institute of Applied Technology to have a laboratory named after her at the Fatima College of Health Sciences in Abu Dhabi and Al Ain.
