We believe nurses are the heartbeat of health care
Content
Staying true to island culture and the principle of kuleana, meaning “responsibility and concern for all people,” Hawai‘i Pacific University offers online graduate programs to help registered nurses prepare to serve their communities in a range of primary and acute care settings.
As communities shift economically and culturally, nurses must be able to treat and communicate with a variety of populations. Fusing ʻkoʻa (the celebration of unique qualities) with personal support, HPU’s nursing programs allow you to explore the aspects of patient care you’re most passionate about and graduate career- and world-ready.
