Dr. RS Mehta, MSND, CON, BPKIHS

21. Keeping abreast with the overall philosophy of BPKIHS,
the faculty of college of nursing, BPKIHS believes that:
• Nursing profession is an integral part of the
health care delivery system.
• Advances in scientific technology in the field of
health have a direct bearing on nursing;
therefore, nursing education has to keep abreast
with the latest knowledge and technology.
• Nurses need to be prepared to meet the
changing health needs of the country.
PHILOSOPHY
21
Dr. RS Mehta, MSND, CON, BPKIHS

22. • Nurses need to have human relation skills to work effectively
as members of health care team in dealing with individuals and
groups in a variety of settings.
• Learning is a life-long process.
• Conscientiousness and commitment are the essential aspects
of the helping and caring profession of nursing.
• Nursing education needs to be community-oriented, practice-
based and student-centered, focusing on self-directed
learning.
• Nurses should strive continuously to add to the body of
scientific knowledge.
22
Dr. RS Mehta, MSND, CON, BPKIHS

Dr. RS Mehta, MSND, CON, BPKIHS

27. Why M. Sc. Nursing Programme was started for
3 years: Rationale:
1. College of Nursing proposed for 2 years M. Sc.
Nursing only in the beginning.
2. All the faculty of College of Nursing and expert
from NNC, TU, IOM Nursing campus and
nursing expert from AIIMS, PGI, CMC, RAK
recommended for 2 years MSN Programme
only.
3. There was no 2 years PG. programme at BPKIHS
at that time.
Dr. RS Mehta, MSND, CON, BPKIHS 27

28. 4. For uniformity in the entire PG programme,
present authorities have enforced to start 3
years M. Sc. Nursing programme at College of
Nursing.
5. Finally, the CON, accommodate the time plan of
prepared 2 years curriculum in to 3 years by
increasing the duration of clinical posting in
specialty subjects only.
6. The authorities and numbers of academic
committee suggest that, you should review the
M. Sc. Nursing programme, when one batch will
pass out and analyze, whether 3 years is ideal or
2 years is ideal.
Dr. RS Mehta, MSND, CON, BPKIHS 28

29. Rationale for proposed two years M. Sc.
Nursing Programme:
1. Nationally and internationally the M. Sc nursing
programme is of only Two Years.
2. The Nepal nursing council has also approved
for 2 years programme only
3. The minimum requirements set by NNC, INC and
other regulatory bodies can be met within 2
years.
Dr. RS Mehta, MSND, CON, BPKIHS 29

30. 4. At present in BPKIHS there is 2 years PG programme,
MPH in school of public health and community
medicine.
5. Based upon the feedback of passed out students,
exiting students, and faculties of college of Nursing 2
years M. Sc. Nursing programme will be ideal.
6. All the theory hours and clinical hours expect
specialty clinical hours will same in 2 years M. Sc.
Nursing programme. The specialty clinical hour’s ratio
will be more that NNC requirement i.e. 1:3 is required
but 1:4 will be there. The details are depicted in
separate sheet for proposed theory and practical
hours.
Dr. RS Mehta, MSND, CON, BPKIHS 30

31. Rationale for proposed two years M. Sc. Nursing Programme…
7. The quality of the students will not be
compromised.
8. If duration of M. Sc. Nursing course will be of 2
years more eligible and component applicant
will be there, which will increase the quality of
the programme.
9. Two years M. Sc. Nursing programme at BPKIHS
will give the similarity Result of M. Sc. Nursing in
Nepal, India and abroad.
