Abstract
St. Catherine University has a long history of educating healthcare professionals, and a reputation for producing skilled and compassionate practitioners. A dynamic university educating women to lead and influence, St. Catherine University prepares students to make a difference in their profession, their communities, and the world. The university is home to nearly 5,000 students and is one of the largest private women’s colleges in the nation that also offers a wide range of programs for women and men in the Graduate College and College for Adults. The three sections in the baccalaureate-degree nursing program at St. Catherine University (the College for Women BSN section, and the College for Adults BSN and RN-BSN sections) are endorsed by AHNCC. Faculty skillfully blend rigorous clinical education with holistic nursing theory and healing practices throughout the curriculum. Care and compassion build as the philosophic principles, standards, and core values of holistic nursing influence the lived experience of students and faculty. Multicultural healing perspectives walk alongside approaches of Western medicine. Through coursework and hands-on clinical experience, students graduate from St. Catherine University’s baccalaureate-degree nursing program grounded in holism with the ability to address the complexity of nursing situations.
