Chamberlain
College of Nursing |
|
Chamberlain College of Nursing is launching from a solid and historical, 120-year educational foundation of preparing compassionate, knowledgeable, and clinically proficient graduates. Formerly known as Deaconess College of Nursing, the newly named Chamberlain College of Nursing is fueled by the ingenuity of a progressive and expansive nursing program.
First established in 1889, the school evolved from a diploma school of nursing to a college of nursing, offering both ASN and BSN degrees. In March 2005, DeVry Inc. acquired Deaconess. A term of the acquisition agreement is that Devry's use of the Deaconess name will expire as of September 30, 2006, thus requiring a new name.
The new name Chamberlain exemplifies the strength and solid, historical foundation of Deaconess, while positioning the school for future growth.
Derived from the Middle English word chaumberlein, which means chief steward, the name also alludes to the critical role of the nurse as the central steward and coordinator of patient care.

As a nurse, you have an unlimited choice of work environments ranging from a busy emergency room, clinic, hospital, surgicenter, school, physicians office, pediatric environment, military, research, legal, community service or corporate environment. By becoming a nurse - YOU can make the difference.
Building on its nearly 120 year history, Chamberlain College of Nursing continues to be at the forefront of quality nursing education. It's our goal to not only prepare clinically proficient nursing professionals, but to take education one step further in helping students foster personal growth, career mobility, community service and leadership.
