Nursing Education for Krishnagiri Learners

Krishnagiri district, in the north-western corner of Tamil Nadu, is famous as the state's mango capital and for the fast-growing Hosur industrial belt. Because the district borders Karnataka, many learners from Krishnagiri, Hosur and Denkanikottai look towards Bangalore for higher education.

For nursing aspirants, staying within Tamil Nadu has real advantages — Tamil Nadu state counselling, affiliation under The Tamil Nadu Dr. M.G.R. Medical University, and clinical postings in Tamil-speaking hospitals. JKKN College of Nursing (Sresakthimayeil Institute of Nursing and Research) at Komarapalayam offers exactly that, around 150 km from Krishnagiri along the well-served NH-44/NH-544 corridor via Salem.

The institute is approved by the Indian Nursing Council (INC), accredited by NAAC, and affiliated to The Tamil Nadu Dr. M.G.R. Medical University, Chennai. Clinical training takes place at the JKKN group's multi-specialty teaching hospital, so learners work with real patients from the first year of the programme.
