Nursing Matters
Being a registered nurse is one of the most rewarding and challenging of all professional careers. As a registered nurse, you will have the opportunity to promote health, serve humanity and experience the self-satisfaction of a rewarding career. At the University of West Alabama Division of Nursing, we help to prepare students for lifelong success in nursing.
The career outlook for nursing is excellent. A shortage of nurses has led hospitals and other employers to offer flexible work schedules, educational benefits, and other incentives to retain existing staff and to recruit new graduates.
Mission Statement
To bring about positive change in the field of healthcare through nursing education, service-learning projects, and community outreach.
