This is perhaps the most primary and essential Department. Here students are given practical insights through  training which incorporates various biological and behavioural sciences that determine nursing and patient care. The Fundamental Nursing Laboratory is where students set a practical orientation of various nursing procedures. This is conducted under keen supervision by qualified teachers. These procedures are repeated many times before the orientation in the clinical area. The laboratory has advanced facilities that include a computerized mannequin used to simulate nursing procedures.

Nutrition is yet another critical area in nursing. Here, students are taught the fundamentals of preparing various types of diets. They learn to differentiate between a wide variety of diet patterns recommended for ailments such as diabetes, renal problems, hypertension etc. This enables them to guide patients with regard to their specific dietary requirements. The Nutrition Laboratory has every facility required to demonstrate, prepare and deliver various therapeutic diets.
