OSHNA and NASN believe the quality of nursing practice is directly linked to the practitioner's body of knowledge and skill level. The availability of national, regional, state, and local educational activities related to practicing in the school setting, benefits the school nurse and the children and communities served.
Western Schools: ANCC Accredited. Volumes of all different nursing specialties can be found. State specific required courses are listed as well.
