Become a highly-skilled nurse • Fulfill your calling • Make a difference
One of my favorite things about the nursing program was the professors. They genuinely care about their students both in and out of the classroom and actively seek ways to support them. Additionally, our senior preceptorship played a big part in preparing me for my future career by allowing me to practice skills and really get a feel for what being a nurse is actually like. You truly don’t get that level of practical experience anywhere else and it definitely sets you apart from other new graduates.

You'll be part of a community whose ultimate mission is to honor God and serve others and learn how to do this within the context of nursing.
There is no shame in not knowing something, rather it is an opportunity to learn and to get better. Specifically, in nursing, there is an overwhelming amount of material that you are taught, told to read, and tested on. Learning this material takes time and intentionality. I would argue that asking questions does not show a lack of knowledge, but rather a desire for it. The JBU nursing faculty does an excellent job of fostering this pursuit of knowledge and understanding both in the classroom and clinical setting.
