REVIEWS
Read What Students Are SayingWhile shadowing doctors and physician assistants, I was able to see nurses in many settings. All of the personnel that I visited with said that hands down, nurses coming from training at Covenant School of Nursing were much more qualified to walk into their positions and do a great job. The direct patient contact while having instructors involvement is invaluable.
