CENTRAL PARK COLLEGE OF NURSING
Central Park Nursing College was established in 2014 with the aim to produce competent,
caring and compassionate nurses. We offer One year Post Basic specialized
diploma and 2 years Certified Nursing Assistant Program. CPNC is registered
with Pakistan Nursing and Midwifery Council, Nursing Examination Board Punjab,
and affiliated with Nursing Examination Board Punjab, Lahore. Our nursing
students get their clinical training from Central Park Teaching Hospital; a 600
bedded Tertiary Care Hospital.
The guiding philosophy of the CNA Program is based on the College of Nursing’s
values: collaboration, social responsibility, integrity, respect,
accountability, diversity, and excellence.
Collaboration
The Care of individuals, families and communities occurs within a health care system that provides consultation, collaborative management, and referral between nurse-physician and other health care providers. This care enhances continuity in the best interests of the women and their families.
Social Responsibility
Social and reproductive justice is an essential value of the nursing practice. There is a need to develop innovative systems to increase access to health care for all individuals and their families.
Integrity
Nurses respect their self-worth, dignity, and professional integrity. They provide an environment that promotes privacy and safety for individuals and their families and protects them from harmful and unethical practices.
Respect
Nurses respect the individuality, dignity, and basic human rights of all people and patients present in a healthcare facility. They support the self-determination of individuals and their families through partnership and empowerment. Nurses recognize the normalcy of women's life cycle events, including menarche, preconception, pregnancy, birth, newborn care, postpartum, miscarriage and abortion, well-woman care, and menopause. A central goal of care is to promote, maintain, and restore the well-being and health of women, families, and communities.
Accountibility
Nurses maintain a commitment to professionalism through reflective and systematic evaluation of practice and ongoing professional growth.
Diversity
Nurses approach the care of individuals and their families from a position of cultural humility and inquiry, they provide care without discrimination or prejudice.
Excellence
Nurses apply the scientific evidence from nursing science, midwifery, and related sciences to the care of individuals and their families. Nurses educated at the graduate level are prepared to safely and competently practice the PNC core competencies while BSN graduates are further prepared with skills in leadership, practice inquiry, and evaluation.
