Explain the Philosophy of the CCM Nursing Program

The CCM Nursing Program philosophy focuses on the person, the patient, The nurse, the faculty and the student. With regards the the person the philosophy recognizes that each person evolves differently based on their values, beliefs, and motives which impact their daily life.
