The Margaret H. Rollins School of Nursing at Beebe Medical Center Schedules Open House for November 17

10/14/11

"In October 2011, the Beebe Medical Center Board of Directors renamed the School of Nursing to recognize the generous donation of Margaret H. Rollins, Lewes native and long-time supporter of Beebe Medical Center.


The Margaret H. Rollins School of Nursing at Beebe Medical Center invites those interested in entering the rewarding and challenging field of nursing to attend the School's semi-annual Open House on Thursday, November 17, from 3:30 p.m. -- 5:30 p.m.
Ginny Rickards, MEd, RN, Director of Admissions, will conduct information sessions every 30 minutes (the last session will be at 5 p.m.) to discuss educational opportunities. There is a two-year, four-semester curriculum that begins each August. The School is located in back of the hospital building on Savannah Road in Lewes.
The School of Nursing education program offers comprehensive nursing education, providing education in basic nursing concepts, advanced technology, and critical care nursing. The curriculum also provides optimal, hands-on clinical experience that is easily accessible to students since the School is on Beebe Medical Center's main campus.
Upon completion, graduates are well prepared for licensure and entry-level nursing practice. Agreements with Wilmington University and the University of Delaware provide the student with an opportunity to obtain a Bachelor's Degree. This degree can be obtained in one additional year with Wilmington University or with a completion plan at the University of Delaware.
Pre-requisite college courses and a certified Nursing Assistant Course are required prior to enrollment in the School Nursing program. For more information and to register for the Open House, call the School of Nursing at (302) 645-3251.
