یو ایچ ایس لاہور سے طلبہ کے حق میں خصوصی اپیل
بی ایس نرسنگ کے بہت سے طلبہ کو اناٹومی کے مضمون میں صرف 1 نمبر کی کمی کی وجہ سے سپلیمنٹری کا سامنا کرنا پڑا ہے، جو یقیناً طلبہ کے لیے انتہائی مایوس کن صورتحال ہے۔
یو ایچ ایس انتظامیہ سے گزارش ہے کہ ایسے طلبہ کی جوابی کاپیوں پر نظرِ ثانی کی جائے اور اس بات کو یقینی بنایا جائے کہ کسی بھی طالب علم کے جائز نمبر نظر انداز نہ ہوئے ہوں۔
طلبہ پورا سمسٹر محنت کرتے ہیں، لیکن صرف ایک نمبر کی کمی ان کے پورے سمسٹر، وقت، پیسوں اور مستقبل پر اثر انداز ہو سکتی ہے۔ اگر اتنی بڑی تعداد میں طلبہ صرف ایک نمبر سے فیل ہو رہے ہیں تو انتظامیہ کو ان کے کیسز پر خصوصی توجہ دینی چاہیے۔
ہم یو ایچ ایس انتظامیہ سے پُرزور اپیل کرتے ہیں کہ امتحانی قواعد کے مطابق ممکنہ ریلیف پر غور کیا جائے اور طلبہ کے مستقبل کو مدِنظر رکھتے ہوئے منصفانہ فیصلہ کیا جائے۔
صرف ایک نمبر کی کمی کسی طالب علم کے پورے سمسٹر پر بھاری نہیں پڑنی چاہیے۔ طلبہ کو انصاف اور منصفانہ جائزے کا موقع ضرور ملنا چاہیے۔

*📢 یو ایچ ایس بورڈ کی جانب سے نرسنگ امتحانات کے شیڈول اور طلبہ کے لیے اہم تعلیمی ریلیف کی منظوری*

یونیورسٹی آف ہیلتھ سائنسز (یو ایچ ایس) کے بورڈ آف اسٹڈیز نرسنگ اینڈ مڈوائفری کا 44واں اجلاس بدھ کے روز منعقد ہوا، جس کی صدارت وائس چانسلر میجر جنرل (ر) پروفیسر سہیل صابر نے کی۔ اجلاس میں ڈائریکٹر جنرل نرسنگ پنجاب محترمہ طاہرہ پروین، بورڈ آف اسٹڈیز کی کنوینر پروفیسر ثمینہ کوثر اور یو ایچ ایس سے منسلک نرسنگ کالجز کے پرنسپلز نے شرکت کی۔

اجلاس میں چار سالہ بی ایس سی نرسنگ اور دو سالہ پوسٹ آر این بی ایس سی نرسنگ کے سالانہ 2026 کے پروفیشنل امتحانات کے شیڈول کی منظوری دے دی گئی۔

یہ امتحانی شیڈول یو ایچ ایس سے منسلک نرسنگ کالجز کی جانب سے فراہم کردہ تعلیمی سیشن مکمل ہونے کی رپورٹس کی بنیاد پر تیار کیا گیا ہے۔ مختلف گروپس کے امتحانات فروری 2027 سے جولائی 2027 کے دوران منعقد کیے جائیں گے۔

بی ایس نرسنگ فال 2024 کے پہلے سمسٹر کے ایسے طلبہ جو امتحان میں شرکت نہ کر سکے اور تعلیمی طور پر روک دیے گئے تھے، ان کے حوالے سے اہم فیصلہ کیا گیا ہے۔

بورڈ نے تجویز منظور کی ہے کہ ان طلبہ کو فال 2025 بیچ کے پہلے سمسٹر کے دوبارہ امتحان میں شرکت کا موقع دیا جائے، جو مارچ 2027 میں منعقد ہونا متوقع ہے۔

تاہم اس کے لیے ضروری ہوگا کہ:
✅ طلبہ اپنے مطلوبہ لیکچرز مکمل کریں۔
✅ تمام ضروری عملی کام مکمل کیے جائیں۔
✅ متعلقہ کالجز طلبہ کے وسط مدتی اور اندرونی جائزے کے نمبرز یو ایچ ایس میں جمع کروائیں۔

اس فیصلے کے نتیجے میں متعلقہ طلبہ اپنے تعلیمی وقت کے کم از کم چھ ماہ بچا سکیں گے۔ بصورتِ دیگر انہیں پہلے سمسٹر کے امتحان میں شرکت کے لیے فال 2026 بیچ کے ساتھ امتحان دینے تک انتظار کرنا پڑتا۔

اجلاس میں تعلیمی سال 2026-27 کے لیے یو ایچ ایس کے آن لائن فیکلٹی پورٹل کے ذریعے رجسٹرڈ نرسنگ فیکلٹی کے نئے اور نظرِ ثانی شدہ پینل کی بھی منظوری دی گئی۔

یہ فیکلٹی ممبران پرچے تیار کرنے، پرچوں کی جانچ کرنے اور عملی امتحانات لینے کے لیے مقرر کیے جا سکیں گے۔

وائس چانسلر پروفیسر سہیل صابر نے ہدایت کی کہ منسلک نرسنگ کالجز کے نرسنگ ایجوکیشن ڈیپارٹمنٹس کو تعلیمی نظام میں مسلسل بہتری کے لیے مؤثر طریقے سے استعمال کیا جائے۔

انہوں نے نصاب میں تبدیلیوں، تدریسی طریقہ کار اور امتحانی نظام کے حوالے سے باقاعدگی سے آراء حاصل کرنے پر زور دیا۔ ان آراء کو اعداد و شمار، تعلیمی معلومات اور شواہد کے ساتھ مرتب کیا جائے تاکہ تعلیمی اصلاحات کے حقیقی نتائج کا جائزہ لیا جا سکے۔

انہوں نے یو ایچ ایس اور منسلک نرسنگ کالجز کے درمیان قریبی رابطے کی اہمیت پر بھی زور دیا تاکہ امتحانات بروقت منعقد ہوں، طلبہ کی تعلیمی پیش رفت میں رکاوٹ نہ آئے اور نرسنگ کی تعلیم کے معیار کو مزید بہتر بنایا جا سکے۔

Punjab Public Service Commission

Charge Nurse BS-16 Interview Questions

06 October 2026

Solved Version | All Interview Questions | Section B

---

8. Gastrointestinal System, Liver & Fluid Balance

74. Why does edema occur?
Edema occurs when excess fluid accumulates in the interstitial tissues. Major causes include increased hydrostatic pressure, decreased plasma oncotic pressure, increased capillary permeability, lymphatic obstruction and sodium/water retention.

75. What is ascites?
Ascites is the abnormal accumulation of fluid in the peritoneal cavity. It is commonly associated with advanced liver disease and portal hypertension but may also occur in heart failure, malignancy and other conditions.

76. If the liver fails, can edema occur? Why?
Yes. Liver failure can reduce albumin synthesis, causing decreased plasma oncotic pressure and fluid movement into tissues. Portal hypertension and sodium/water retention can further contribute to edema and ascites.

---

9. NG Tube Feeding & Patient Care

77. How will you guide an attendant about NG-tube feeding?
I would first explain the procedure, feeding method and safety precautions. I would ensure that the patient's identity, tube position, prescribed feed and aspiration precautions are appropriately checked. An attendant should only perform feeding if they have been properly trained, instructed and authorized according to hospital policy.

78. Will you perform NG feeding yourself or ask the attendant?
As a nurse, I am responsible for ensuring safe patient care. If NG feeding requires nursing intervention, I would perform it myself or ensure that it is carried out by appropriately trained and authorized personnel according to hospital policy.

79. Can you rely on an attendant for feeding?
Not simply because I am busy or my shift is ending. Delegation must be appropriate, the attendant must be capable and properly instructed, and hospital policy must permit it. I would ensure patient safety and appropriate supervision.

80. Can you give tablets to an attendant and ask them to administer them after your shift?
No, not routinely. Medication administration should follow the prescription, patient identification and medication-safety principles. If medication is due after my shift, I would ensure proper handover to the incoming nurse rather than casually giving medication to an attendant.

Malaria is caused by Plasmodium parasites and is transmitted mainly through the bite of an infected female Anopheles mosquito.

86. How will you manage a patient with dengue?
I would assess the patient's general condition and monitor vital signs, hydration status, urine output, bleeding and warning signs. I would maintain appropriate fluid management, monitor laboratory parameters as indicated and use paracetamol for fever when appropriate. I would avoid aspirin and NSAIDs because of the risk of bleeding. Patients with severe dengue require urgent hospital management.

87. How will you manage diabetic foot?
I would assess the wound, circulation, sensation and signs of infection. I would maintain appropriate wound care, control blood glucose, offload pressure, treat infection when indicated, provide foot-care education and refer the patient to the appropriate multidisciplinary team.

COVID-19 stands for Coronavirus Disease 2019. It is an infectious disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus.

Tetanus

Hepatitis B

Measles and rubella

The exact vaccine schedule should be quoted according to the current national or provincial EPI policy.

92. What is the EPI schedule?
The EPI schedule specifies which vaccines should be administered at particular ages, beginning at birth and continuing through infancy and childhood. In an interview, I would quote the current Pakistan EPI schedule used by the relevant health department because immunization schedules can be updated.

Common causes include:

Nose picking or trauma

Dry nasal mucosa

Respiratory infection

Hypertension

Anticoagulant use

Bleeding disorders

Nasal pathology

95. How will you manage epistaxis?
I would keep the patient sitting upright and leaning slightly forward. I would ask the patient to pinch the soft part of the nose continuously for about 10–15 minutes. I would monitor vital signs, assess blood loss and identify possible causes. If bleeding is severe, persistent or associated with hemodynamic instability, I would seek urgent medical assistance.

---

12. Patient, Attendant & Situational Questions

96. If you receive a difficult or upset patient/attendant, what will you do?
I would remain calm and professional. I would listen carefully, show empathy, identify the actual concern and explain the situation respectfully. I would try to resolve the issue within my scope of practice and involve the senior nurse or relevant department when necessary.

97. If you receive two emergency patients simultaneously, what will you do?
I would use triage and priority-based care. I would rapidly assess both patients, identify the most immediate life-threatening condition, call for assistance and ensure that both patients receive appropriate care without unnecessary delay.

98. How will you handle a panic situation?
I would remain calm and avoid creating further panic. I would quickly assess the situation, prioritize immediate safety, identify life-threatening problems, call for assistance, communicate clearly and follow the relevant emergency protocol.

99. How will you manage conflict with a colleague?
I would remain professional, listen to the other person's perspective, identify the cause of the conflict and communicate respectfully. I would focus on patient safety and professional responsibilities rather than personal differences. If the issue cannot be resolved, I would involve the appropriate senior person.

100. If you make a mistake during duty, what will you do?
First, I would ensure the patient's immediate safety. I would promptly inform the appropriate senior nurse or physician, report the incident through the proper system, document it accurately and participate in corrective measures. I would also identify the cause and take steps to prevent the mistake from happening again.

101. If you have to choose between saving a mother or a baby, whom will you choose?
I would not make an arbitrary choice based on personal preference. I would immediately call the appropriate obstetric and emergency team and follow established clinical protocols. I would prioritize the patient requiring the most immediate life-saving intervention while making every possible effort to protect both the mother and baby.

> Interview point: This is a very sensitive question. Avoid saying simply "mother" or "baby." Demonstrate clinical judgment, emergency prioritization and teamwork.

Depression is primarily characterized by persistent low mood or loss of interest or pleasure, along with emotional, cognitive and physical symptoms.

107. What do you think about the blue or white nursing uniform debate?
Sir/Madam, I believe the most important considerations are professional identity, hygiene, patient recognition, safety and institutional policy. Whatever uniform is officially approved, nurses should maintain a clean, professional and appropriate appearance and follow departmental rules.

108. Why are hospital bedsheets usually white?
White makes stains, blood and contamination more visible, making cleanliness easier to monitor. It also provides a clean and standardized appearance. However, the actual color of hospital linens may vary according to institutional policy.

⭐ High-Yield Situational Questions

For PPSC Charge Nurse interviews, these questions deserve extra preparation because the panel can use them to assess your judgment rather than just your textbook knowledge:

1. Two emergency patients arrive simultaneously.

2. You make a medication error.

3. A patient's attendant becomes aggressive.

4. A doctor gives an unclear or potentially unsafe order.

5. A senior asks you to do something against hospital policy.

6. A patient suddenly becomes unconscious.

7. A blood transfusion reaction occurs.

8. A patient refuses treatment.

12. A patient's condition deteriorates suddenly.

13. Two senior staff members give you conflicting instructions.

14. A patient complains about nursing care.

15. You notice a breach of infection-control precautions.

Best approach: In situational questions, structure your answer around patient safety → rapid assessment → prioritization → appropriate intervention → communication → escalation → documentation.
