When you become a La Salle student, you join a community that includes teachers, scholars, and mentors who truly care about you, &nbsp;your academic and professional success, your intellectual and spiritual growth, and your potential to make a difference in the world. La Salle is one of six colleges or universities in the United States founded in the tradition of St. John Baptist de La Salle, the patron saint of teachers and founder of the Christian Brothers. At La Salle, you gain the skills and knowledge you need to succeed after you leave campus, and the values and traditions that will stay with you when you do.</span></span>

Nurses value the relationships between nurses and those for whom they care. Nursing services aim at facilitating the health of people in many settings, thus fulfilling a contract between society and the profession. Nurses’ primary interests are human responses to health, illness, and healing. Nurses carry out many roles when providing nursing care and increasingly support nursing interventions based on evidence.</span></span></span></span>
