The nursing program at Hood College is designed to provide knowledge and skills to meet the increasing complexity of health care in the 21st century. This is accomplished by a foundation in liberal arts and nursing education focused on the health needs of the individual, family, and community. The students also develop competency in leadership, evidence-based practice, nursing theory and communication necessary for professional nursing practice. Two tracks are available that lead to the Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree: the BSN Pre-licensure Program and the BSN Completion Program. The BSN program is approved by the Maryland Board of Nursing and accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education.
