Dear Nursing Students,
Welcome to the Nursing Department at MCHP. Our department has a long and proud history of preparing exceptional nurses who are highly sought after upon program completion. Throughout the State of Maine and the greater New England region, nurses enjoy strong employment opportunities in a wide range of practice settings, including long-term care, acute care, home health, primary care, wound care, and many others.
The goal of each nursing program is to provide students with diverse and meaningful learning experiences that foster critical thinking and clinical judgment, encourage lifelong learning, and promote the development of a growth mindset essential to professional nursing practice.
Nursing education requires dedication, time, and significant effort. Students are encouraged to approach their studies with commitment and resilience. The Nursing Department wishes each student success as they progress through their program. Our faculty and staff are committed to supporting students academically and professionally and are available to assist them in achieving their goal of program completion and entry into the nursing profession.
Thank you,
Leanne Moreira, Ph.D., MSN, RN
Dean of Nursing
