ریبیز 150 سے زائد ممالک میں ایک سنگین صحت کا مسئلہ ہے، جو زیادہ تر ایشیا اور افریقہ میں پائی جاتی ہے۔ یہ ایک وائرل، زونوٹک بیماری ہے جو سالانہ ہزاروں اموات کا سبب بنتی ہے، جن میں 40% بچے 15 سال سے کم عمر کے ہوتے ہیں۔

کتے کے کاٹنے اور پنجے مارنے کے واقعات 99% انسانی ریبیز کیسز کا سبب بنتے ہیں، اور ان کو کتے کی ویکسینیشن اور کاٹنے سے بچاؤ کے ذریعے روکا جا سکتا ہے۔

28 ستمبر کو ہونے والے عالمی ریبیز دن پر اس بیماری کے بارے میں مزید جانیں، اپنے آپ کو کیسے محفوظ رکھیں اور اس کے خاتمے میں کیسے مدد کر سکتے ہیں

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.

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.

by Shabbir Hussain Jhatial Honorable Madam Minister اسلام علیکم ! With reference to tagged news item linked to your views on PNMC mayhem and its solution , I humbly put my observations in good faith and in enhancement of better quality of the nursing workforce for which your good offices have been striving for. In this context I as a privy to PNMC, submit my sincere observations to substantiate the expressed point of view about its decentralization. Hon. Madam !

Since statuary Councils are in concurrent list and to decentralize it, the consent of central government seems mandatory. In the background of utter failures of PNMC functioning according to its statuary mandate, the MoNHSR&C and some INGOs have termed PN
