A Comparative Study of Male and Female Nursing in Pakistan: Challenges and Opportunities

    Pakistan is one of the countries around the world that is creating job opportunities for the health sector instead of a weak economy. The government is creating more facilities for the health sector. The government is increasing the health budget to patch up health-related issues. However, there is also a need to enhance the nursing staff to care for the patients and facilitate them as best as it is possible. In Pakistan, the nursing profession has many types of problems related to their salaries, their shortage of vacancies, and other religious, cultural, and ethical issues. However, the government is trying to facilitate the nursing profession and overcome all the health-related issues. Pakistan Nursing Council (PNC) is the main body to controls the nursing profession in Pakistan. PNC is a regulating body that frames the rules and regulations for nursing institutions in Pakistan.
