Welcome To
Nursing College DHQ RMU
Florence Nightingale was the pioneer of nursing profession and introduced the concept of modern nursing. Since then, nursing profession has been flourishing with passion. Nevertheless, the profession still holds firm to its noble value of “love” “care” and “selfless service”. Thus, nursing education plays a crucial role in meeting the health care needs of the humanity. I feel delighted to highlight that the nursing diploma has been replaced with the 4years BSc Nursing program in Pakistan.
Students are the backbone of the nation and nurses are the backbone of the healthcare system. However, moving to a new stage in life can be a challenging process. You should work hard and more focused towards your studies. May all the dreams that you hold in your heart will come true.
I wish my students the best of luck in all of your future accomplishments. Further, I extend my best wishes for success in their career effort to use their knowledge in meeting the challenges posed by the complex healthcare system.
