In visiting our home page, you will have
the opportunity to experience our excitement about the profession of
nursing and to learn how the Capstone College of Nursing brings nursing
education, health care services, and research to the people of Alabama,
the U.S. and the world.
It has never been a better time to be a nurse. The Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates that there will be openings for more than one million nursing positions between now and 2020. At the same time, the aging of the U.S. population – lead by the retirement of the baby boom generation – is expected to cause an increase in demand for nursing services. So whether you’re a high school student considering a career in nursing, an experienced nursing professional interested in advancing your career, or just want to learn more about the College, its news and events, I trust you will find our website full of useful information. For additional information on any of our services or programs, don’t hesitate to contact us.
