The faculty of the VSU College of Nursing are dedicated to improving the health care of our region through the preparation of a professional nursing workforce characterized by enthusiasm, skill, knowledge, and honor.  Through the establishment of a teaching/learning environment based in empathy, aesthetics, science and technology, faculty and staff work to sustain a culture of caring, competency and creativity.
