Introducing Chamberlain College of Nursing

Chamberlain is derived from the Middle English word chaumberlein which means "chief steward". Chamberlain exemplifies the nurse as the chief steward of progressive patient care. Chamberlain College of Nursing's mission is to provide quality and innovative healthcare education. By providing nursing education programs that feature a broad educational foundation, the college will fulfill its commitment to prepare compassionate nurses, as well as to foster personal growth, career mobility, community service and leadership among healthcare professionals. Chamberlain is also working to respond to the nation's critical and growing shortage of nursing professionals by broadening our geographic and Online reach.

Addressing the nation's critical nursing shortage:
The federal government estimates that more than one million new and replacement nurses will be needed by 2012. And for the first time, the U.S. Department of Labor has identified Registered Nursing as the top occupation in terms of job growth through the year 2012. Yet the capacity to educate and train new nurses is lacking. More than 38,000 students were turned away from U.S. nursing schools last year due to lack of space.

Responding to the nation's critical and growing nursing shortage, we will increase access to nursing education as well as expand online programs and consider opportunities to open new campuses in markets nationwide.
