Take a Holistic Approach to Patient Care
Care for the physical and spiritual needs of your patients. With Christ as the perspective for learning, our team of expert and caring faculty will challenge you to understand patient care through a multifaceted lens — focusing on cultural, psychological, developmental, physical and spiritual health assessments. Meanwhile, your study in the liberal arts will help you to build a strong foundation in communication, leadership and critical thinking.

What our students say about the Nursing program
“The Nursing Program is truly wonderful, the professors are so caring, diligent, and inspire me to be good nurses like they are. We are taught to care for our patients like how Jesus cares by being empathetic and respectful towards them. I’ve learned that we are the hands and feet of Christ and have been able to see the depths of our capability to love those around us. We are given the space to be vulnerable enough to be confused or ask for help because the professors care about our success and want us to be the best we can. The community of learners aspect at SAU is real, I love being able to see the passion everyone has and be well-rounded in the spiritual aspects of our learning to better serve Christ.”
