Question Summary:
Duaa’s for a quick recovery

Question Detail:

 
I'm a volunteer in the hospital and seeing muslim patients having to make a short duwa with them for a quick recovery. 
The steps I usually take are Surat Al-Fatihah, Darood Sharif, asking for a quick recovery in english, Darood Sharif again and ending the duwa. 
Is their a recovery duwa in Arabic that I can add in this as well for more blessings?
Do you think I need to change anything on the procedure I am making the duwa?

Answer :

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
Your service to the patients at the hospital is a great act of worship and a Sunnah of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam).
Allah Ta’āla accept your sacrifices and preserve them for the hereafter. Aameen
1)     It is advisable to recite Surah al-Fātihah seven times and blow on the patient.
2)     It was the habit of the beloved Messenger (sallallāhu `alayhi wasallam) to recite the following duaa when visiting the sick:
اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّ النَّاسِ أَذْهِبِ البَاسَ، اشْفِهِ وَأَنْتَ الشَّافِي، لاَ شِفَاءَ إِلَّا شِفَاؤُكَ، شِفَاءً لاَ يُغَادِرُ سَقَمًا
Transliteration: Allaahumma rabbin naas, adh`hibil ba’s, ishfihi antash shaafi, laa shifaa’a illaa shifaauk, shifaa’an laa yughaadiru saqamaa
Translation: Oh Allah, the Lord of the people! Remove the trouble and heal him (i.e. the sick person) for You are the Healer. No healing is of any avail but Yours; healing that will leave behind no ailment.[1] 
3)     Furthermore, it is reported in the Sahīh of Imam Muslim (rahimahullāh) that the Messenger of Allah (sallallāhu `alayhi wasallam) also advised the sick to do the following: 
ضَعْ يَدَكَ عَلَى الَّذِي تَأَلَّمَ مِنْ جَسَدِكَ، وَقُلْ بِاسْمِ اللهِ ثَلَاثًا، وَقُلْ سَبْعَ مَرَّاتٍ أَعُوذُ بِاللهِ وَقُدْرَتِهِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا أَجِدُ وَأُحَاذِرُ
Translation: Place your hand at the place where you feel pain in your body and say “bismillah” three times and also recite (the following) seven times: a`udhu billāhi wa qudratihi min sharri maa ajidu wa uhadhiru.[2]
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
