With the start of an already bustling nursing department and the beginnings of yet another wonderful year, planning has begun for 2014. Eight years after its inception as a community college in 1970, Coastal Bend College continues to provide excellence in nursing education and support to the community.The nursing faculty remain diligent to the art and science of caring. The mission and philosophy of the nursing department is congruent with the message of the college. “Nursing is a unique calling and a dynamic profession that incorporates the concepts of caring, thinking, lifelong learning and professionalism in practice”. These concepts are rooted deeply in the teaching methodologies used by the nursing faculty.
