The program allowed me to view nursing the way I do: as a valuable profession, not a job. The nursing theory I learned at 妻友社区 did that for me 鈥� it made this my career, not my job. The greatest attribute of 妻友社区鈥檚 program is it allows nurses to obtain the bedside clinical experience of an intense hospital-based nursing program, coupled with the theory and liberal arts of any other college degree.”
