Career routes and professional limits
After registration, GNM graduates may work in hospitals, nursing homes, community-health services, clinics, public-health programmes, schools, occupational-health services, home care and other approved settings. Job eligibility depends on the recruiting authority’s registration, age, experience, examination and reservation conditions.
GNM-qualified registered nurses may pursue Post Basic B.Sc. Nursing when they meet the university’s eligibility conditions. Other options may include approved post-basic specialty diplomas, public-health or hospital-administration programmes and continuing nursing education.
Overseas employment requires separate qualification assessment, language testing, registration and immigration compliance. Indian registration alone does not authorise nursing practice in another country.
