Our Philosophy
The institution believes that health and wellness are two fundamental concepts integrated throughout the program — health as a state of well-being spanning physical, psychological, social, economic and spiritual dimensions, and wellness as each individual's own perception of it, shaped by the presence of disease and their ability to adapt. Health is a right of all people, and individuals have a right to be active participants in achieving health as they perceive it.
Society consists of dynamic and interactive systems involving individuals, families, groups and communities, influenced by cultural diversity, race, caste, creed, socio-economic levels, religion, lifestyle, environment and political factors. Nurses and midwives recognise and respect human differences and diversity within society, providing ethical care with respect and dignity while protecting patients' rights.
Nursing as a profession and discipline draws on knowledge from the arts, sciences and humanities, and on human experience. Nursing science brings together clinical competence, critical thinking, communication, teaching-learning, professionalism, caring and cultural competency.
Nurses collaborate with other health disciplines to solve individual and community health problems. Nursing facilitates evidence-based practice and compassionate caring among its practitioners in response to emerging healthcare issues and new discoveries and technologies in the profession.
Nursing practice requires personal commitment to professional development and life-long learning. Its scope spans promotive, preventive, curative and rehabilitative care across the life span in varied healthcare settings, built on knowledge, attitude, competencies and skills developed through the Council's curricular and practice standards.
Nursing offers qualified nurses and midwives a wealth of opportunities in practice, education, management and research, in India and overseas. The undergraduate program is broad-based, directed toward critical thinking and professional values, blending experiential, reflective, scenario-based and simulated learning.
The teaching-learning process encourages mastery learning that is modular, self-directed and self-accountable. Graduates are prepared to become exemplary citizens, adhering to a code of ethics and professional conduct in fulfilling their personal, social and professional obligations.
Health and community orientation are provided with special emphasis on national health problems, national health programs and national health policy directives, in pursuit of universal health care for all citizens of India.
Graduates take on three key roles: a provider of care with beginning proficiency in delivering safe care, a coordinator or manager of care as an active participant of the inter-professional team, and a member of the profession demonstrating self-responsibility and accountability.
Faculty carry the responsibility of being role models, creating a learning environment that cultivates critical thinking, curiosity, creativity and inquiry-driven, self-directed, life-long learning — a process in which students gain the competencies required to function within their scope of practice.
