Family Health

The Department of Family Health Nursing focuses on the care of people and their families across the life span. The department's vision arises from the broader tripartite mission of the university, the school, and the Corridor: teaching, scholarship, and service. We embrace these essential values:

• The community is the context for our care of families.
• Interdisciplinary collaboration promotes better health care.
• Nursing of families requires a life span approach.
• Students, clients, communities, and faculty participate in connecting conversations.
• We value diversity in family constellations.
• Our practice is grounded in health as families define it.
