From the desk of President

“Coming together is beginning,
Working together is success,
Keeping together is progress.”


Education is a prime instrument of national purpose and that quality of education is inescapably involved in the quality of the nation. It was a great honor to pen down this noblest profession in few line.

Milestones are reached, touched with modest celebrations and the team sets forth with privileged zeal and enthusiasm to accomplish new dreams. In other words, the minute the concept of quality touches our life, we are inspired and motivated to raise the bar; as we instinctively want to go beyond our current capabilities to target and achieve excellence. The quest for excellence has assumed paramount importance not only in the field of academic achievements but also in leadership qualities, curiosity to know more, inter-personal skills etc.

We strive hard not to strangle the holy curiosity of inquiry in our children. True education is that which teaches one to learn, unlearn and relearn, so as to become fine human beings and contribute positively to the society.

“Nursing is an art: and if it is to be made an art, it requires an exclusive devotion as hard a preparation, as any painter’s or sculptor’s work; for what is the having to do with dead canvas or dead marble, compared with having to do with the living body, the temple of God’s spirit? It is one of the Fine Arts: I had almost said the finest of Fine Arts”.
– Florence Nightingale

This fine art – the nursing practice, requires a solid foundation of a sound professional knowledge intertwined with skill and will. Professional Nursing education plays a key role in molding these essential skills and attitude of a young aspiring nurse to become a competent professional. Today’s students are tomorrow's leaders of a community. The future of the nursing profession is in the hands of the young student nurses.

TNAI plays a critical players in assuring quality educational and clinical experiences that prepare the nursing work force for a diverse and ever changing health care environment. We are responsible for preparing and mentoring the current and future generations of nurses. Developing mature minds depends on one's power of intellect and reasoning. The current day apathy and disinterest in studies will disappear and pave the way for enhanced performance level leading to quality improvement which will be a rewarding experience for students, teachers and the parents.

We at TNAI strives to provide the comprehensive environment for the students nd the profession to grow . Our endeavor is to create well rounded, confident nurses who willingly contribute towards the well-being of the country and the world at large.

“All odds, all challenges and all handicaps of life can be overcome with strong determination, persistent hard work, insurmountable patience and unshakeable tenacity”

My best wishes to all members.
