Northwest Shoals Community College – Nursing Program

Read the job classifieds or search the job websites and you will ALWAYS find hundreds of nursing positions available. This is not because there is a shortage, but because each year, hundreds of new healthcare facilities are being built.

It’s up to our colleges and universities to produce highly skilled nurses to fill the positions at these facilities. At Northwest Shoals Community College, the nursing program in Phil Campbell is highly respected.
