Courtesy: Shakeel Choudhari Mosotho Makhoba(his comment on daily sun online:- It's very hard to be a nurse nowadays. If nurses did not do their work many children would have died from communicable diseases, if nurses did not care, there would be no hospitals. Consider how we are perceived:- If a patient goes missing, the nurse is blamed, the pharmacy does not dispense medicines, the nurse is blamed, the kitchen fails to supply meals on time, the nurse is blamed, if the laundry fails to deliver linen, the nurse is blamed, if the hospital is dirty, the nurse is blamed. 1 nurse cares for 10 pts but is expected to deliver quality nursing care. Everybody has rights except nurses. It is acceptable for every person to have mood swings but not a nurse. INDEED! not all nurses are angels, NEITHER are they ALL devils, They work under horrible and unbearable conditions & they are stressed out because of resource shortages (both human and material). Nursing is said to be a calling, but they also have families to feed, clothe, educate give shelter to etc. Nurses are being accused of being driven by money but do u know who works as hard and under such unbeatable and abnormal hours for charity? Nurses leave their children unattended at night to go on duty to serve the community that hates them, They work over weekends, during public holidays because the very people that hates them want to enjoy the holidays, so they dump their frail relatives at hospitals under the care of 'THESE CRUEL' nurses, I'm proud to be a nurse? Are you???? PLS SEND this to ALL the nurses you know, I've just done my bit.

Difference Between Post-RN BScN & Generic BSN (Updated 2023)

Are you confused about the terms BSN, BScN, Generic BSN, Post-RN, BS Nursing, and BSc Nursing? We receive many questions about these terms at PKN. This updated post will clarify these terms, especially in the context of recent changes in Pakistan. In short, the Generic BSN is a degree program for individuals who wish to join the nursing profession after 12 years of schooling, while the Post-RN BScN is a degree program for nurses who already have a three-year diploma in nursing.  Generic BSN The Generic BSN is an ideal option for those who want to enter the nursing profession in Pakistan. Previously, another option to join the nursing profession was the 3-year diploma in general nursing. However, according to the Higher Education Commission (HEC) of Pakistan's policies, the diploma in nursing was phased out across Pakistan in 2018.  The Generic BSN is a 4-year degree program followed by a one-year internship. An internship involves practical nursing practice in a hospital under

SOPs for Managing Nurses’ Monthly Duty Roster Manually

Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for Managing Nurses’ Duty Roster Version 3 (January 2019) Developed By: Khalil Ahmed Head Nurse, CCU, IH, PIMS, Islamabad Description: The purpose of developing these SOPs was to create uniformity and clarity in the policies regarding nurses’ duty roster. This document has brought the already practised rule into written form. The first version of the SOPs was introduced in Emergency and Accident Center, PIMS in 2014.  Further improvements have been brought in the subsequent versions. Constructive feedback would be appreciated. A sample duty roster which incorporates some of these rules is attached. SOPs Rationales 1.        Days off available in a month: 1.1.     Weekly off: A nurse will be eligible to avail weekly days off equal to the number of Sundays in a month. Because every Sunday is an official day off, therefore, all nurses are eligible to avail days off equal to the number of Su

Nursing Diploma to BSN | Facts and Rumours

by Khalil Ahmed Jatt and Dr Raisa Gul Most of the nursing education institutions, in Pakistan, have been offering 3-year General Nursing Diploma since their establishment. The 4-year Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BScN) degree programme was introduced in the country in 1997 and the first cohort of BScN nurses graduated in 2001. Since then, many nursing institutions (schools or colleges) gradually switched to the degree programme, but the diploma programme was not abolished in the country. The issue of abolishing the diploma became a topic of hot discussion when the Pakistan Nursing Council (PNC) stopped the nursing institutions to enroll students in the diploma programme in January 2019.  Although most of the stakeholders are welcoming this announcement, some are raising their concerns against this move. Some rumours and misconceptions are also circulating in this regard. By distinguishing the facts from the rumours, the stakeholders can contribute towar

What is PNC Licensure Exam and Why is it Necessary?

by Khalil Ahmed Jatt, Head Nurse, PIMS, Islamabad  PNC Licensure Examination is a written test of the Generic BSc Nursing graduates that is conducted by the Pakistan Nursing Council to determine the preparedness of the graduates for nursing practice. Recently, the examination has been abolished by PNC due to some understandable reasons. Some people are of the view that PNC licensure examination for GBSN is unjust and unnecessary. Their perspective is based on the following arguments: When there are university exams then we do not need to appear for an extra exam. There is no licensure examination for the diploma holders therefore, there is no need for licensure exam for BSN graduates. Other healthcare professionals in Pakistan do not go through such examination, therefore this exam is unnecessary for BSN graduates It is not conducted internationally. PNC can not conduct a transparent examination. Many toppers failed in the licensure examination. Licensure examina
