Key Summary
Introduction
The Faculty of Health Sciences at the University of Lethbridge offers the Bachelor of Nursing and Bachelor of Nursing After Degree programs in collaboration with Lethbridge College. Students study theory and experience clinical practice in the areas of medical and surgery, long-term care and continuing care, pediatrics, maternity and child, labour and delivery, mental health, and rural acute and community health.
Graduates are prepared to be caring holistic professionals who base their nursing practice on theoretical knowledge, evidence, and standards for nursing practice. Emphasis on cultural, social, and health issues - particularly related to rural, elderly, and aboriginal populations - are key components of the programs.
The programs provide the essential background to write the Canadian licensure exam to become a registered nurse (RN).
