UTMB School of Nursing

Did you know that HUT has proudly partnered with the UTMB School of Nursing in Galveston since 2020? We kicked off another year of working together by inviting UTMB School of Nursing volunteers to engage with our HUTs at The La Marque High School! They answered questions about college, medical professions, and shared their journeys about life after high school. The University of Texas Medical Branch UTMB School of Nursing

Last week, 120 of our incredible DNP students participated in the Friday Night at the ER simulation, a powerful experience that challenged them to navigate real-world healthcare scenarios in a fast-paced, high-pressure environment. Through teamwork, critical thinking, and leadership, they gained invaluable insights into the complexities of healthcare systems, helping to shape them into the innovative, patient-centered leaders of tomorrow.?? We're so proud of their dedication and the impact this hands-on learning will have on their future practice!?? #FutureNurseLeaders #DNPExcellence #FridayNightAtTheER #UTMBSON

It’s always a great time for #UTMBSONFeatureFriday! This week, we are focusing on students' favorite courses in the SON curriculum. Han Nguyen is a fourth-semester BSN Traditional student. Check out what Han had to say! “My favorite course so far in my curriculum is Obstetrics. I find this course particularly engaging because it provides a deep understanding of maternal and newborn care, which I find both fascinating and rewarding,” said Han. “Witnessing a new life being born is such a privilege, and the combination of hands-on experience with in-depth theoretical knowledge allows me to develop the critical skills necessary for providing compassionate and effective care to the patients.” Congratulations, Han!
