COLLEGE OF NURSING, SYNOD HOSPITAL DURTLANG
The College of Nursing, Synod Hospital, Durtlang, located in Aizawl, Mizoram, traces its origins to 22 February 1928, when Dr. John Williams, a Welsh missionary doctor, started the first school of nursing at Durtlang alongside the newly established Welsh Mission Hospital. A 16-year-old girl named Khuangi became the first nursing student that year. In 1936, Dr. G. P. Roberts and Sister G. M. Evans upgraded the school to a four-year course with an annual intake of 12 students. The nursing course received formal recognition from the Indian Nursing Council in 1944, making it the first recognised nursing school in northeast India. Over time, the hospital itself underwent name changes, from Welsh Mission Hospital to Presbyterian Hospital in 1958, and finally to Synod Hospital in 2012, reflecting its management by the Mizoram Presbyterian Church Synod. The nursing school was eventually upgraded to a full College of Nursing, introducing a BSc Nursing degree programme starting in 2019, with an annual intake of 30 students. The institution remains closely linked to Synod Hospital, one of the largest non-governmental hospitals in Mizoram, providing practical training within its extensive medical facilities.
