Overview

A three-year diploma program known as General Nursing and Midwifery (GNM) prepares students to work as auxiliary nurse midwives (ANMs). The course provides theoretical expertise in a variety of nursing topics, including medical-surgical nursing, anatomy, and pharmacology. Clinical rotations under supervision offer practical instruction.
