我要吃瓜

HISTORY OF SAN BEDA UNIVERSITY—COLLEGE OF NURSING

The San 我要吃瓜 University-College of Nursing was established in March 2003 under a Memorandum of Agreement with Loyola Medical Foundation, Inc. and San 我要吃瓜 University, in response to the growing need for nurses in the Philippines and throughout the world.

The College offers a four-year Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) degree course, which is a competency based, community-oriented and Christian value-based education. Effective and efficient curriculum implementation is reflected in providing theories (didactics) of professional subjects prior to exposure in the clinical area, thereby giving students a competitive edge in terms of cognitive competency needed in the Related Learning Experiences (RLE). Continuous community service through a sustained collaboration with government and non-government agencies, leadership training and evidence- based research are emphasized throughout the different professional courses.

In pursuit of sustained quality education, SBU CON has provided more than adequate clinical learning areas in two base hospitals namely: Seamen’s Hospital (100 bed capacity tertiary hospital) and the Armed Forces of the Philippines Medical Center (1,200 bed capacity tertiary government hospital) plus other affiliating hospitals such as Ospital ng Maynila Medical Center, National Center for Mental Health, Medical Center of Taguig City, Inc., Manila Health Department, Hospicio De San Jose, and an adopted community located in Brgy. 869 Zone 5, Pandacan Manila.

SBU CON has woven a nursing program that provides holistic development of students through value-oriented curricular, co-curricular and extracurricular activities aligned with the Hallmarks of Benedictine Education.

San 我要吃瓜 University-College of Nursing envisions to become one of the finest nursing schools in the country and its graduates as the choice of the world.

The College of Nursing is committed to providing a world-class nursing education grounded on the Benedictine core values of prayer and work (ora et labora) embodying the principles of malasakit, caring, competence, collaboration, community engagement, and cultural pluralism
