Nursing is the study of the direct personal care, support and condition monitoring (usually accompanied by frequent “hands-on” activities) of those who are sick, injured, disabled, or elderly. Students learn about the day-to-day skills and practices involved in quality patient care. This includes learning about human anatomical and physiological processes, human growth, development, and behavior as well as teamwork, observation and referral, responding to emergencies, health care facility operations, philosophy and management, diet and nutrition, etc. Some of the specialties under nursing and related services are mid-wifery, occupational nursing, public health nursing, school nursing, private duty nursing and nurse practitioner. UNCG offers a BSN in Nursing. For more information on the nursing major contact Karen Gilbert in room 123 of the Moore Building.
