About Us

PHILOSOPHY Modern nursing is a dynamic, therapeutic and educative process in meeting the health needs of the individuals, the family and the community. Nursing is one of the health professions which functions in conjunction with other health care agencies and maintain desirable standards of health. Indian Nursing Council believes in the concept of health as laid down by the W.H.O. i.e., “Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.” The International Council of Nurses states that the unique function of the nurse is to assist the individual, sick or well, in the performance of those activities contributing to health or its recovery that he would perform unaided if he had the necessary strength, will or knowledge. The Council recognizes that the nature of nursing is such that a substantial portion of learning of the students is acquired in the clinical field of practice. The Council believes that it has a responsibility in helping the students to develop pride in their profession besides keeping them abreast with current knowledge and professional trends for a successful career ahead.
