The NRC serves as a teaching/learning environment designed to assist nursing students in applying the knowledge they have acquired in the classroom with the skills they will need to perform as a professional nurse in a variety of health care settings.
Under the guidance and supervision of the NRC Coordinator, NRC Lab Assistants and the Nursing Faculty, the on-going pursuits of the NRC are (1) to enhance the learning activities of the nursing students utilizing the labs, (2) to provide the most current materials and equipment relevant to support the various school of nursing programs, and (3) to promote excellence in clinical skills through research and development projects designed to create a dynamic, innovative, and cutting-edge learning environment for all students enrolled in the nursing programs.
