MESSAGE FROM CHAIRMAN
Dear Aspirants
As the Chairman of the Chotanagpur Diocesan Educational Society, it is my pleasure to
welcome you to this place of learning.
Nurses’ roles in this modern era have changed. They are not only expected to provide care to
sick but also to well and needy people in various health care settings. Education of Nurses
contributes a lot to promote and maintain the health of the nation as a whole. Today nursing is
therefore not only a job but it plays an important role in making healthy society.
The college prepares students for a successful career in nursing through the integration of
academic excellence, Christian faith, and professional competence. Students develop
personally, spiritually, and professionally during their time with the College of Nursing.
I advise prospective students to follow the example established by Jesus Christ and care for
others in the same manner as our Saviour. Nursing provides a wonderful opportunity for
ministry.
Ask Lord’s guidance and prayerfully wait for His direction as you enter this wonderful
profession.
May God bless you
Rt. Rev. B. B. Baskey
Chairman, Chotanagpur Diocesan Educational Society, Ranchi
