About
We proudly prepare leaders, educators, and clinicians like YOU!
Here at the School of Nursing at Touro University California, we aim to prepare our students to lead the world in healthcare with the highest level of education, diverse ideas, equality-focused healthcare models, and experience that will change the way health can be delivered.
Professionalism with Heart
As a nurse, you know that your role holds a heavy weight in healthcare. Nurses are at the frontlines as advocates and caregivers for the patients. At Touro University, we understand that you are pursuing your professional goals for many reasons, including because you care about what you do. We share that compassion, understand the complexities of delivering patient care, and provide real life experiences and skills that build an even stronger foundation for nurse-to-patient connection.
Join Our Family!
When you enter into Touro's School of Nursing, you are not just joining a program, you're becoming part of a supportive, welcoming family. Here, you'll team up with other students, faculty, staff and preceptors who will teach, encourage and support you throughout your learning journey.
