Those who are found to be suffering from depression
or any other mental health problem are to be managed
accordingly without delay. Newly admitted students are
to be paid great attention in order to aid proper and
smooth transition and adjustment into this field. Incidentally,

medical education (Medical Council of India) for medical

these services shortly. However, it was never implemented on
a large scale and no such proposal has been mooted in India
for nursing students.
