Nurses are known for their compassion, concern and desire to care for others. The nursing faculty at the С»ÆƬÊÓƵ Salem Campus recently demonstrated that compassion and care by delivering food to frontline workers at local healthcare facilities.

So how do you successfully relocate a four-year medical school to the comfort of home for an entire college? With anatomy labs, casting and injection workshops, face-to-face patient simulations and more, the team of three had to get creative – and fast.

When the COVID-19 pandemic forced its way into our lives, everything changed. At С»ÆƬÊÓƵ, faculty members began delivering lessons remotely and students began learning in online classrooms. All student services became remote/online.
