Its an immense pleasure that we Bapuji college of Nursing and Bapuji School of Nursing are dedicated to produce well trained nurses with excellent clinical and theoretical knowledge. Nurses are trained caregivers. According to World Health Organization there are 20.7 million nurses worldwide in 2020 and there is a global shortage of Nurses and 18 million more jobs are needed to be filled by 2030 inorder to meet the requirements of universal health care for everyone. As the shortage grows steeper and the healthcare landscape continues to change, nurses and their leader should be attentive to the trends that are changing the industry.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A wide-ranging career field, nursing is one that never has a dull moment on the job. The overall career field of nursing provides economic stability and job security,both highly attractive to nursing graduates. People study nursing for many reasons and often have differing goals for the resulting career that the field has plenty of job opportunities and comes with a great degree of respect and satisfaction. Nursing is about careing for other and there&#8217;s nothing more noble in our world.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nursing is a profession in which the threat of unemployment is very rare. The essential perquisite of any nursing actions is its scientific validity. Nurses are thus becoming increasingly rational and scientific in their approach to nursing care. It is the nurse who is in contact with the patients most of the time. Hence a desired trained nurse should have certain personality attributes such as, a degree of mental health to deal with seriously ill, thus common sense, practical bend of mind, calm, sympathetic , sensitivity with certain amount of toughness so as not to get involved emotionally, organising ability, power of observation, ability to take responsibility and at the same time be able to follow instructions.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cefddb0 e-flex e-con-boxed elementor-invisible e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"cefddb0\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInLeft&quot;,&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cde81af elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"cde81af\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Prof. Dr. Kavitha S D - Principal<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fa42f91 e-flex e-con-boxed elementor-invisible e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"fa42f91\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;zoomInRight&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8c651c9 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"8c651c9\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cc6c42c elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"cc6c42c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/bcnsmg.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/100-900-x-500-px-600-x-500-px.svg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-410\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e915198 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"e915198\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-701dd69 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"701dd69\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><b data-path-to-node=\"1\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Prof. Dr. Kavitha S D<\/b> is a highly qualified nursing professional currently serving as the <b data-path-to-node=\"1\" data-index-in-node=\"90\">Principal<\/b> of Bapuji School &amp; College of Nursing in Shimoga, a position she has held since June 2013.
