Introduction

Nursing is a Bachelor program taught at Victor Valley College, USA. Intake: Fall, Spring. The program is offered in campus-based modes with full-time (4 years) options.

The Bachelor of Science Nursing (BScN) prepares nurses to practice in a variety of health care settings. The curriculum blends biological, social sciences, humanities, and nursing courses, combining academic and professional theory with nursing practice. Nursing focuses on health promotion, maintenance and restoration, illness prevention, and palliative care.

Learning is delivered through concept-based learning, which is student-centered and student-directed. Students develop clinical reasoning and nursing judgment to respond to the complexity of today’s health care system. The program includes nursing practice placements in hospitals, community, and long-term care within Nova Scotia Health, as well as private community partners.
