鈥淎dditionally, I am thankful for the quality of students we have been blessed with and their dedication throughout the Nursing program, as well as their commitment to NCLEX success. The NCLEX first-time pass rate is a noteworthy benchmark, and we are proud of that. However, along with preparing our students for success in that area, we are also very proud of the quality of our outcomes in providing communities and employers with RNs that have good character, demonstrated competence, compassion for others and an ability to critically think and lead as they provide high quality healthcare to those in need,鈥� White added.聽
