Philosophy
- The faculty of St. Ann's School and College of Nursing believe that a thorough understanding of human mind and body is essential to advocate health and that nurses are responsible for the health of people in the community they work with. Therefore B.Sc Nursing course is offered to equip students of nursing sciences with a solid foundation on various aspects of human body, mind and lifestyle.
- We believe that a formal education in nursing promotes nurturing of core values like respect, dignity and compassion in students which in turn results in the physical, mental, spiritual, social, physiologic and psychologic development of individual students that are then transformed into highly efficient client care – the ultimate goal of nursing education.
- The faculty recognize that nursing is the art and science of human care. A broken body needs the expertise of a pair of skilled hands, quick and knowledgeable brain sprinkled with a desirable attitude founded on core values. An academic life in the college of nursing offers just that.
- We also accept that excellence in nursing education is achieved only then, when the faculty are regularly updated with current use of science and technology that could be incorporated into nursing education. A hospital and a community health center that are well equipped with the current scientific know-how and latest technology are the two giant pillars that hold the nursing education, practice and the administration together.
- The faculties of St. Ann's School and College of Nursing also believe that hostel life of nursing students while they undergo teaching – learning sessions in the college opens a wider window to the social life of individuals co-existing. This helps them in discernment of their thoughts and actions and above all life adjustment and accommodating qualities.
