Nursing Program

Nurses are at the core of medical care. They work directly with patients handling a wide range of responsibilities. They can work in diverse patient care areas, such as labor and delivery, pediatrics, geriatrics, surgery, trauma and more. Their days are equally diverse as their patient’s needs vary greatly.

The Nursing program at Pima Medical Institute prepares you with the soft and hard skills necessary to begin your career in health care as an entry-level registered nurse. In school, you will take accelerated courses in anatomy and physiology, growth and development, pharmacology, nutrition, nursing theory and skills for patient care across the life span: from newborns to seniors.

Job Outlook

Employment of registered nurses is projected to grow 15 percent from 2016 to 2026, much faster than the average for all occupations. Growth will occur for a number of reasons, including an increased emphasis on preventive care and growing rates of chronic conditions, such as diabetes and obesity. The demand for healthcare services from the baby-boom population, as they live longer and more active lives will also be a factor for job growth.*
