Elmhurst has a really solid nursing program, and I like the small-school environment that it offers. I chose nursing because I really enjoy helping people. I think that's my purpose in life, to serve others.

My favorite parts of the program were the lab simulation and clinical rotations. The preceptors we had were phenomenal role models. They took the time to walk us through the procedures, the equipment, and the nursing care that patients needed.

My experience with this program has been nothing but outstanding. From the instructors, always answering my questions, the placement team coordinating my clinical locations or just the overall close-knit family feel.

It's a lot of work, but you will succeed if you put in the time and effort. It's a great program. The instructors have all been amazing. I would recommend Elmhurst to anyone.

My residency experience has been really great. You do things in repetition, so you can improve on your skills and strengthen the skill sets that you'll need when you get to clinicals. The hands-on approach is very beneficial.
