Hello student,

The job of a nurse may seem pretty simple, but it's not so by any means. A nurse isn't just a doctor's assistant. This role requires a person to take proper care of a patient, and administer proper doses of medication as and when required. Nurses are also expected to be available all day long at times, and have to keep calm along the way, which is not easy at all. They are the heartbeat of overall healthcare system, which is why there are specialised courses that one has to go through to become a nurse.

Right now, there are lots of colleges all across India that offer graduate and post-graduate courses in Nursing. The fee structure varies for all these colleges based upon their popularity, facilities, career prospects, and education system.
