Program Description

The goal of the Nursing Institute is to provide students with an education that will prepare them to be lifelong learners, responsible community members, and productive health care providers in a rapidly changing world. The Associate Degree Nursing program, established in 1970, is designed to produce a well-rounded nurse who is able to think critically, make appropriate decisions, communicate effectively, and function as a member of a health team in providing holistic care to culturally diverse clients.

The two-year program includes training in behavioral sciences, computation, and humanities, as well as providing the necessary knowledge, skills, and competencies required of the nursing profession. Technological innovations such as the Human Patient Simulator, and interactive labs are incorporated within the program. Clinical experiences that emphasize the development of critical thinking skills, and involvement in community are other key aspects of the program.
