Mission of the Nursing Program

The Department of Nursing mission is directly derived from the mission of St. Vincent's College and the mission of the Academic Services Division. The nursing mission statement focuses on the education of nurses who provide care for the sick and the sick poor. It provides a sound and stable educational environment where a diverse student population has the freedom to learn and grow intellectually, develops critical thinking skills, while adhering to a Judeo-Christian philosophy and established standards of professional nursing practice. Faculty members are qualified, caring teachers and nurse-educators. Faculty are dedicated to excellence in nursing education, patient care, life long learning and the mission of the college. The Nursing Department in keeping with the mission of the college seeks to provide technical and professional programs in nursing which foster and encourage professional mobility built on previous learning.
