We deliver a comprehensive and thorough nursing education where you can earn your Associate Degree in Nursing so you can be qualified to sit for the licensure exam to become a Registered Nurse (RN).

    As a profession, nursing provides far more flexibility than many other careers. Nurses command respect in their communities and have always been held in high esteem as essential medical professionals. Salaries for both entry-level and experienced nurses reflect the value the market places on the crucial skills and knowledge that trained nurses possess.

    According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment for registered nurses (RNs} is projected to grow faster than average for all occupations due to an increased emphasis on preventive care; the growing rates of chronic diseases, such as type diabetes and obesity; and the aging of the baby boomer generation who are living longer and desiring more active livestyles.

    Nursing is a noble profession encompassing many different job opportunities. Depending on your level of education and experience, possessing a nursing license can open numerous doors for you. Nurses can work virtually anywhere, from busy emergency departments and hospital wards, to doctors' offices and nursing homes. Nurses can work in public health agencies, in the military and other government agencies, private practice and home health care. If you continue your education, you could even eventually become a nursing educator. The choice is yours. It all starts with your application to St. Paul's School of Nursing.

St. Paul's School of Nursing offers a medical assisting program designed to provide you with the knowledge and skills in office administration, technology and clinical areas needed for entry-level employment in a medical office or clinic.
