High School Summer Nursing Program

Discover a career in nursing.

At the NSLC on Nursing, you’ll gain the vital skills nurses use each day to quickly and correctly assess their patients and deliver high quality, patient-centered health care.

I enjoyed the experience so much and met so many new people. I was unsure if I wanted to pursue nursing before this program, but now I’m certain it is something I am extremely passionate about.
