KARACHI: Dow University of Health Sciences Vice-Chancellor Prof Muhammad Saeed Qureshi has said that the health system can be improved only by raising the standard of medical education in the country. Prof. Muhammad Saeed Quraishy said this while talking to Dr. Aurangzeb Khan, Vice-Chancellor, Shaheed Benazir Bhutto Dewan University, in his office. He said that besides raising the standard of education up to the MBBS level, there is a need to increase the quality and number of nursing educational institutions as there is a shortage of nursing staff all over the world.
