Beebe School of Nursing invites those interested in entering the rewarding and challenging field of nursing to attend the School's semi-annual Open House on Thursday, March 23, 2006, from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m.

Ginny Rickards, MEd, RN, Director of Admissions, will conduct information sessions at 3 p.m. and 4 p.m. to discuss educational opportunities at Beebe School of Nursing. The School is located in back of the Beebe Medical Center main campus on Savannah Road in Lewes.

Beebe's nursing education program offers comprehensive nursing education, providing education in basic nursing concepts, advanced technology, and critical care nursing. The two-year curriculum provides optimal, hands-on clinical experience that is more accessible due to the proximity of Beebe Medical Center.

Graduates are well prepared for licensure and entry-level nursing practice once they have completed the program. Students also can earn a bachelor's degree in one additional year through an articulation agreement with Wilmington College.

Pre-Requisite college courses and a certified Nursing Assistant Course are required prior to enrollment in the Beebe School Nursing program. Call the school at 645-3251 for more information.
