About the College
Smt. Vimladevi Khyalilalji Vagarecha College
Smt. Vimladevi Khyalilalji Vagarecha College of Nursing Education is a dedicated institution committed to excellence in nursing education and professional development in Thane, Maharashtra. The college was established with the vision of preparing competent, compassionate, and skilled nursing professionals who can meet the evolving healthcare needs of society.
In 2022, the college successfully launched its General Nursing and Midwifery (GNM) program after receiving due permissions from the Government of Maharashtra, the Maharashtra Nursing Council (MNC), and the Maharashtra State Board of Nursing and Paramedical Education (MSBNPE). This milestone marked the beginning of its journey in providing structured and recognized nursing education.
Building on this strong foundation, in 2023, the college introduced the B.Sc. Nursing (4-Year Degree Program) under the affiliation of Maharashtra University of Health Sciences (MUHS). The affiliation ensures that the curriculum, academic standards, and clinical training meet state and national educational norms.
SVKV imparts the students to develop basic concepts in nursing and humanities using modern teaching techniques. The students are placed in various clinical speciality areas in the various healthcare organizations under the guidance of well qualified nursing faculty to achieve greater degree of patient care.
