Nursing Education

Nursing is both a science and an art. The professional activities of a nurse and attributes such as empathetic communication and dedicated care contribute towards maintaining well-being of patients.

The nursing curriculum prepares students with a level of competence for safe clinical practice and improved patient outcomes. A wide variety of teaching strategies and evaluation methodologies have been employed to encourage active learning, sound clinical reasoning and decision-making ability.
