Nursing is a profession focused on the care of individuals, families and society. The value

of education is now measured in terms of the impact made on the society. Today a nurse

in India is expected to work with a broad base of scientific knowledge to give holistic and

comprehensive care to the patient, family and community. Our institution encourages the

students to sharpen their skills to function in an independent, collaborative and assistive

role at an affordable cost. The faculty takes the responsibility in helping the students to develop pride in

their profession and keep them updated with current knowledge and professional trends for a success-

ful career. Through constant effort and will power the young nurses can bring positive changes in nurs-

ing profession as they are the nurturing angels. Be happy and feel proud in serving

the community.
