Lincoln Memorial University (LMU) and CHI Saint Joseph Health have partnered to create an off-campus site for the LMU-Caylor School of Nursing in Lexington, KY. This partnership will establish synergy for continuous quality improvement in both education and the practice of nursing. The United States is projected to experience a shortage of registered nurses (RN) that is expected to intensify as "Baby Boomers" age and the need for health care grows. There has never been a better time for one to seek a professional career in the nursing field.
Nurses are the foundation of a hospital and at the heart of health care. Passionate about helping others, effective nurses receive a rewarding career that presents the opportunity to be an advocate for people in need and make a lasting impression on their recovery and life. Nurses can help heal patients, aid in recuperation and improve their overall well-being, touching individual lives in a positive way daily.
This campus will offer classrooms with the latest technology, a fully equipped skills lab, simulation rooms with high fidelity simulator mannequins, student study rooms and a computer lab.
Located at CHI Saint Joseph Hospital, LMU's Lexington campus will offer a Fast Track BSN nursing program.
