School Of Nursing

Jeevan Jyothi School of Nursing is a christian minority educational institution established & managed by the sisters of the society of Jesus, Mary & Joseph. The society was founded by Rev. Fr. Mathias Wolff S. J. in 1822. The medical apostolate of the society began in India in the year 1904 with the arrival of seven Dutch sisters at the invitation of his grace J Alen the then Archbishop of Madras. Planted as a mustard seed, the society spread its medical apostolate to various parts of India. At present, the society has 4 colleges of nursing at Guntur, Dargamitta, Hyderabad and Bangalore. It also has five schools of nursing one of which is Jeevan Jyothi School of Nursing, Telco, Jamshedpur.

Late Rt. Rev. Dr. Joseph Rodericks, the then Bishop of Jamshedpur, invited the sisters of the Society of Jesus, Mary and Joseph to establish and accomplish a School of nursing at Jamshedpur. Tata Motors Hospital, which has 404 beds, established in 1968 in the Telco Town, offered to provide clinical experience to the student nurses. Thus the idea of the Jeevan Jyothi School of Nursing came into existence. The first batch of GNM student nurses were recruited in January 1986. The school obtained recognition from the Bihar Nurse’s Registration Council and the Indian Nursing Council in the year 1987, and the Mid India Board of Education (M. I. B. E.) in 1997.

The School, together with Tata Motors Hospital, provides good educational facilities and a wide scope for clinical experience to the students. Admission is open to candidates from all parts of India provided they meet the basic requirements specified in the school prospectus.
