Nursing
The Nursing Program offers a “2+2” option to nurses with their associate degree in nursing or diploma in registered nursing who wish to acquire a bachelor’s degree. The program focuses on the use of an adult-learner centered approach that recognizes family, home, and employment responsibilities of the nurse who is in college. It is offered on the Mayland Community College campus in Spruce Pine, North Carolina.
Holistic Nursing Philosophy
The Lees-McRae RN-BSN Program curriculum utilizes a holistic nursing philosophy in a stimulating collaborative learning environment. The curriculum includes general education and nursing courses eliminating the need for pre-requisite courses. Individuals may send transcripts to Martha Hartley to determine if additional general education courses are needed. If needed, courses may be taken prior to or after entering program.
The program is accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education.
"This program was educationally challenging while at the same time being logistically a breeze. The mix of organized class meetings each week along with the time for independent work on my schedule allowed me to continue to work full time, teach part time and still have a family. The instructors and support staff could not have been more helpful from the time I sent a letter asking for information about the program all the way through to graduation."
