Nursing is a profession, not merely a collection of specialised talents. Nursing is a great combination of today’s health-care sector with the traditions of the past. It is a wonderful vocation that provides mankind with the greatest benefit. It is centred on providing treatment to each individual patient in order to help them maintain and improve their health and quality of life.

Nursing is a career that requires a strong dedication from nurses. Nurses, with their nursing training and duties, play a critical role in creating the organisation a welcoming environment for patients. Despite the fact that the nursing profession has improved significantly over the last year, nurses are still not as well-recognized as physicians, and they continue to work for poor wages.
