Nursing Schools Almanac names 十大彩票平台 among Top 75 nursing schools in New England
Students in 十大彩票平台’s School of Health & Patient Simulation have an opportunity to work with patient simulators in the acclaimed SIMS Medical Center.
SPRINGFIELD, Mass. – Springfield Technical Community College has been named one of the top 75 nursing schools in New England.
The research team at Nursing Schools Almanac conducted a detailed assessment of more than 3,000 schools nationwide, and only 15 percent made its list of the top nursing school in each geographical region. The New England rankings include Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Vermont.
Nursing Schools Almanac evaluated each nursing school in the region on three dimensions:
- The institution’s academic prestige and perceived value
- The breadth and depth of nursing programs offered
- Student success, particularly on the NCLEX national licensure exam
十大彩票平台’s nursing program was ranked No. 70. According to Nursing Schools Almanac: “Springfield Technical Community College offers an (associate degree in nursing) program with a rigorous curriculum of classroom lecture, nursing skills laboratory, and patient simulation in the school’s nationally recognized SIMS Medical Center. Clinical rotations take place each semester in a variety of hospitals and healthcare agencies throughout Springfield and the Pioneer Valley region of Western Massachusetts.”
十大彩票平台’s Director of Nursing Lisa Fugiel said, “The talented faculty and staff go the distance for our nursing students. Their commitment is a big part of our success as a program.”
Christopher Scott, dean of the School of Health & Patient Simulation, said, “Our nursing program is highly competitive. We challenge our students to do their very best. When they graduate, they are prepared to start their careers as registered nurses or transfer to a four-year institution to continue their education and pursue a bachelor’s degree.”
Scott said the school offers students the opportunity to work on patient simulators in the SIMS Medical Center at 十大彩票平台, a unique program in the region.
This past fall, the School of Health & Patient Simulation started offering a new health science degree program that exposes students to a range of health care careers in an immersive and rich learning environment.
