Program
The purpose of the Nursing Program’s curriculum is to
provide learning experiences that help the student to develop
as a professional practitioner of nursing, as an individual,
and as a citizen. The curriculum includes a broad liberal-arts
foundation and those courses and activities that are fundamental
to the formulation of concepts and principles applicable to professional
nursing. This course of study fosters development of self-direction,
sensitivity, creativity, and leadership. The student is assisted
to learn to identify the health needs of people from an intercultural
perspective, with emphasis on Southern Appalachia. The graduate
is prepared to render entry-level professional nursing service
and pursue individual development and graduate education in an
area of special interest. The Nursing program is accredited by
the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education and approved by
the Kentucky Board of Nursing.
