Mission
To strengthen the educational and research mandate for uplifting the Nursing profession and healthcare system by exhibiting effective leadership and collaboration in research, technology, scholarship and innovation.
Never in the history of the nursing profession has there been such an opportunity for nurses to play a key role in transforming health care. These nurses provide care to individuals, families, and communities in virtually all locations in which health care is delivered, including hospitals, long-term care facilities, ambulatory care settings, homes, schools, and workplaces. Our profession carries the enormous responsibility of leading reform in health and healthcaresystems, improving health outcomes of patients and their families, and generating and translating knowledge that improves nursing education, nursing leadership, research and nursing practice. In this regard, ZUFONAM is highly committed to meet these challenges and addressing the critical health needs of our population by preparing nurses who have a broad understanding of the profession, public policy, leadership, and health care systems. The overriding strength of our educational programmes, research opportunities, and clinical services lies in the talented and dedicated faculty members and researchers at the Faculty of Nursing and Midwifery.

I began looking for several nursing colleges as soon as I completed my intermediate. I was made aware of a variety of options, but as soon as I learned about the professors, individualized practice sessions, community, and exposure that ZUFONAM offers its students, it immediately rose to the top of my list.

“NURSES ARE THE REAL ESSENCE OF HEALTH CARE SYSTEM.”
I still remember my first day at the Faculty of Nursing Midwifery and that was a different energy that I could still feel. My four-year journey was more than a classroom experience, we had one on one mentoring sessions with our teachers and I think that I had some of the best mentors at the school and then we had skill sessions and those were perhaps the best practice sessions as we actually applied what we learn in the classroom and this made us more confident before handling the actual patients. Our university also gives us a chance to participate in extracurricular activities by providing platforms such as the student council in which I participated twice and served as Vice President in my final year, which enhanced my leadership skills, my confidence level, and much more!!
I cannot wait to enroll in the master program at ZUFONAM.
