The goals of the CNHS nursing education programs are to:
-
prepare qualified men and women for leadership roles in basic and advanced professional nursing practice in a rapidly changing, multicultural, multiethnic, global environment;
-
promote, expand and validate the scientific base of nursing knowledge and practice through the discovery, organization and transmission of research-based knowledge, skills and values;
-
collaborate with local, national and international health care agencies in promoting excellence through cost-effective, accessible, equitable and humanistic health care delivery systems for divergent individuals, families and communities.
The undergraduate and graduate nursing programs are designed to prepare professional nurses who can lead, coordinate, and oversee the delivery of accessible, affordable, high-caliber, comprehensive, culturally competent, humanistic, and holistic health care. Graduates are prepared to function within the contexts of a cost-conscious, consumer-oriented, litigious, highly mobile, multiethnic, global environment, and a competitive, profit-oriented, and highly technological health care system. In addition, graduates have crossed the threshold of the 21st century, utilizing their vision and expertise to respond to the inevitable changes and challenges in technology and resources for international health care delivery.
