REASONS FOR BEING
We, students of nursing, believe there is a common need to organize, to represent
ourselves to the consumer and other health disciplines, and to assume our rightful place in the profession of nursing.
We believe every individual has a right to the highest quality of health care.
We believe in the development of the whole person towards his/her professional role with
its rights, responsibilities and ideals.
We believe every right bears inherent responsibility.
We believe responsibilities are participatory, not purely philosophical or ideological.
