CONGRATULATIONS to one of our CENLA CRNA students- Ms. Sailor McLain!! Sailor was recognized at the Louisiana State Nurse Anesthesiology Conference with the Outstanding Nurse Anesthesia Resident Award!

Sailor has been an exceptional student since her first days at NSU as a BSN student. She has continued to excel in all areas and achieve all of her goals plus some. Now she is just a few months away from graduating the DNP program as a CRNA! She is a remarkable young woman and we are so very proud of her! CONGRATULATIONS Sailor!! 💜

The The Junior League of Alexandria recognized those who serve our community and make a positive impact! A few of our students were recognized while they were in their Leadership clinical rotation for our BSN program! Thank you to the Junior League and CHRISTUS St. Frances Cabrini for sharing this special recognition with our students! 💜

We recognize those faces!! Our students love the opportunities to give back to the community that supports us! 💜 Thank you Manna House Ministries for allowing our students the opportunity to serve!

Caring hearts in action! ❤️

A special thank-you to these Northwestern State University nursing students for volunteering at Manna House. Their compassion extended beyond the classroom as they helped us serve hot, nutritious meals and hope to neighbors experiencing food insecurity.

These future nurses understand that caring for others begins with kindness, dignity, and a willingness to serve. We are grateful for their helping hands and generous hearts! 🩺🍽️

As our semester kicks off, do not forget that we have a Lactation Station for moms to pump while on campus! Enjoy a water or snack, relax and enjoy the privacy while you pump, and know that NSU supports your efforts to provide for your baby while working on your academic goals! 💜
