Bachelor of Science in Nursing
Imagine being a nurse who is not only a caregiver but a problem-solver, one who combines medical expertise
with an awareness of global health issues. Imagine the rewards of learning how to care for patients from
different cultures in a diverse population. Imagine the possibility of studying abroad to get a firsthand look at
healthcare systems in places like London or Finland. This is the study of nursing at Nazareth—a program
designed for the complexity and challenge of 21st century healthcare.
Why a Bachelor's Degree in Nursing?
According to the American Association of Colleges of Nursing, rapidly expanding clinical knowledge and
mounting complexities in health care mandate that professional nurses have baccalaureate degrees in nursing.
Health care today requires RN's who can:
•
•
•
•
•
Practice across multiple, less structured environments
Function with more independence in clinical decision making and case management
Supervise unlicensed aides and other support staff
Design and manage a comprehensive plan of nursing care
Master advancing technology
Program Highlights
•
•
•
•
•
Students gain clinical experience in a variety of settings: acute, ambulatory, long-term care, and
community-based.
Strong emphasis on working in multicultural situations with patients of diverse backgrounds,
languages, and income levels.
The program is rooted in the Nazareth liberal arts tradition, so interdisciplinary studies are encouraged
in related fields such as gerontology, art therapy, and communications sciences.
The only program in the area to offer a 1+3 BS program for Licensed Practical Nurses.
Accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE).
