Our 4-Year B.Sc Nursing (Basic) program at Chitkara School of Health Sciences is a full-time program comprising eight semesters. The program prepares nurses and midwives for generalist nursing, including midwifery practice. Knowledge acquisition related to wellness, health promotion, illness, disease management, and care of the dying is core to nursing practice. Mastery of competencies is the main focus. Students are provided with opportunities to learn a whole range of skills in addition to acquiring knowledge related to nursing practice (nursing and midwifery).
The program is an excellent opening for candidates who aspire to be trained in India as per international standards.
