School of Nursing

The philosophy of UHH SON is to educate professional nurses to lead change and translate science into practice in a dynamic global health care environment. Our school promotes transcultural nursing with a focus on rural populations and communities where each person has the right to participate in making decisions that affect their health. Our emphasis includes deepening commitments to social justice, improving the quality of healthcare, and advancing access to the underserved. Our vision is a world where our graduates will strive to promote health, alleviate suffering, provide service to the community, and become leaders at local and global levels.
