Why choose nursing?
The profession of nursing is rewarding, intellectually challenging and will provide you with many opportunities for specialization. Caring for patients in a hospital, working with clients in the community to improve health, caring for people in primary care as a nurse practitioner, working with the elderly or children, engaging in research to improve health care, teaching patients or students, or using technology to improve health care systems are just a few avenues one can pursue in a nursing career. One of the largest and most prestigious nursing programs in the country, Hunter-Bellevue School of Nursing, can help you to become a nurse, or to continue your education in nursing.
The School of Nursing is located on the Brookdale Campus of Hunter College, 425 East 25th Street at 1st Avenue adjacent to The VA Hospital, Bellevue Hospital and NYU Medical Center. Clinical education at HBSON is innovative and takes place at a wide variety of medical centers across the tri-state area. Please explore the opportunities that exist here, and we would be delighted to discuss your interests further.
