Because our communities are currently in an era of provider shortages, the role of the nurse is more important than ever. In fact, nurses make up the largest health care profession in the United States. They work in a variety of settings which may include clinics, hospitals, long term care facilities, and community settings.

At TCC, the nursing program keeps in step with the needs of the community. We offer quality education and produce competent, skilled nurses who excel in all facets of health care delivery. We are proud of our graduates!
