Nursing Education at KCMA

When you open up to others, you open up to growth and change

PRESTIGIOUS PREPARATION
Kettering College of Medical Art's (KCMA) nursing program is dedicated to educating highly skilled and caring health care professionals in a Christian environment. The nursing program at KCMA has been preparing men and women to be nurses for over thirty years.

SMALL CLASSES, BIG IMPACT
KCMA's philosophy of teaching has kept our class sizes small, allowing students the opportunity for individualized attention for academic support. The nursing program provides students with a wide variety of opportunities to make a real difference in the lives of others.

WHOLE-PERSON CARE
Many employees seek KCMA's graduates because of their strong clinical and academic background — as well as their commitment to caring for the whole person. Nurses graduating from KCMA are exemplary professionals.

ORIGIN OF HEALTH
The nursing faculty at KCMA believes that humans receive life as a gift from God and therefore are in a dynamic relationship with their creator in order to become whole. Through God's nurturing acceptance, God allows humans to exercise free will in making choices throughout the lifespan. The faculty in the division of nursing has identified the concepts of humans, environment, health, and nursing as central to the profession of nursing. Nursing practice is an art and a science that involves enabling individuals, families, and communities to attain mutually established health goals relative to their health status. Communication, critical reasoning, and decision-making through a problem-solving process are crucial to both art and science of nursing. Christian caring enhances movement toward maintenance, promotion, and restoration of health.
