Our Acute Care Nursing Program prepares you to work in acute care settings. Develop your nursing knowledge while you gain the expertise you need to deliver comprehensive care to the acutely ill adult. Practice applying critical thinking, advanced assessment and decision-making skills by working with simulated patients who are experiencing rapidly deteriorating health conditions. This nursing program emphasizes holistic care, cultural diversity/sensitivity, critical thinking and reflective practice. Courses take a patient-focused, family-centred and interprofessional approach. Current research, adult learning principles, social justice, best practices and lived experience provide the foundation for learning.
