Shawnee State University’s most recent graduating class in the Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program has received a 100% pass rate on their board exams, School of Nursing officials announced.
“It really demonstrates our program’s rigor – our faculty members ask a lot of our students and our students ask a lot of themselves,” SSU School of Nursing Director, Dr. Cathy Bailey said.
SSU’s BSN program opens the door to a variety of career and educational options related to advanced degree practice in nursing. A four-year program, students can expect to receive an education that will put them in a position to be qualified for a competitive role in healthcare after graduating.
“Our faculty truly work hard inside and outside the classroom as well as in the clinical setting to help our students develop their clinical judgement skills,” said Dr. Bailey. “Each of our faculty members bring a different expertise to our program and students are able to pull from each of those experiences to build their skills and be prepared to enter the workforce.”
Serving those just beginning their nursing educational journey to licensed nurses seeking high quality educational opportunities, the SSU School of Nursing continues to respond to the demand for more prepared nurses. The school is in the process of developing plans for additional pathways to nursing, accelerated degrees, and advanced degrees – including a Master of Science in Nursing.
