“Different health organisations have continued to warn about the impending shortage of health care workers, especially nurses, on the global level.
“By investing in their training, we will be able to produce enough to meet our needs and contribute in managing the global shortage.
“I extend my appreciation to the proprietor of the College, the management and staff of the College for their dedication and hard work in contributing to the growth of our health sector.
“I reminded the student nurses that nursing is a noble profession in which they will find fulfillment, by serving society.
