Important Announcement:
The Division of Nursing has scheduled its CCNE Accreditation visit for November 9, 10, 11, 2009. Please click here for more information.
The Nursing Chapter of the Sacramento State Alumni Association is an
organization that serves to foster a lifelong interest and
connection with the Division of Nursing and Sac State. Since the
undergraduate nursing program’s inception in 1958, thousands of Sac
State baccalaureate degree nurses have gone forward to serve their
communities and improve the health of others. The impact of this
commitment to a profession in caring is amplified by the fact that
one nurse working full-time for thirty years is likely to touch the
lives of over thirty thousand individuals, assuming the nurse cares
for just four patients each eight hour day.
Strong alumni participation allows the Chapter to fund an
undergraduate student award which recognizes nursing leadership. The
Chapter holds an annual dinner each spring, a fall wine and cheese
social, and other events to build fellowship among faculty, alums,
students, and friends of the Division of Nursing. These events
provide service to the alumni by offering continuing education units
and professional development opportunities, while reuniting
classmates through the years. As members, alumni serve as mentors to
current students and as liaisons to the greater nursing community.
Please consider supporting your alma mater and the Nursing Chapter
of the Alumni Association through membership. It is a great way to
give something back and to reacquaint yourself with former
classmates and friends. We look forward to welcoming you at our next
event!
