Nursing (Children's and General integrated)
Nurses play a critical role in society: they help individuals achieve, maintain or regain the best possible health, and at other times, they provide comfort, support and dignity in times of illness or death. They often work in conjunction with families, groups or the larger community.
In addition to professionalism, a nurse must practice with intelligence, compassion and enthusiasm.
