UNMC College of Nursing invites public to open house in Lincoln; provides opportunity to learn about nursing as a career

The University of Nebraska Medical Center College of Nursing and the

Lincoln and Omaha Nebraska Student Nurse Association chapters, invite the

public to learn about nursing career and educational opportunities during

an open house in Lincoln on Saturday, March 1, from 1 to 3 p.m. The event

will take place at the University of Nebraska Lincoln student union ballroom

located on 14th and R Streets in Lincoln.

The open house will provide the opportunity to explore nursing as a

career, said. Dani Eveloff recruiting coordinator for UNMC College of

Nursing. Information about UNMC College of Nursing undergraduate, graduate

and doctoral programs, including degrees available through distance technology,

as well as tuition reimbursement, loan repayment and financial aid, also

will be available.

Nursing students and graduates are highly recruited from across the

nation. The jobs are almost unlimited because of the nursing shortage,

said Eveloff. The nursing shortage in Nebraska continues to be a problem. 

If it is addressed successfully more students will become aware of the

potential opportunities in a nursing career.
