About Us

The Community Nursing website provides access so some of the great projects we have developed to enhance the health of our community.

CHN students practice the roles and responsibilities of a community health nurse through:

  • Working in partnership with community organizations to develop, implement, and evaluate a health project incorporating the principles of population health promotion, public health, primary health care, and community development
  • Preceptoring with an RN that focuses on at least one aspect of community health nursing:
    • Population health
    • Health promotion
    • Health protection
    • Illness/injury prevention
