Nazareth Academic School of Nursing

The School of Nursing empowers students through an expanded provision of courses related to health care. More than 400 students each year undertake General Nursing qualifications, ranging from a Diploma to a B.A. degree in Nursing. We like to think that our students gain the best experience while training with us, which is reflected in our 2020 graduation results where 100% of students passed their final exams.

“Throughout my journey at the School of Nursing, I experienced my faith grow. Working with my Christian colleagues and praying alongside them helped me reconnect with God. I feel extremely blessed to have worked in a such an amazing institute and for the opportunity to work with so many wonderful people.”

TEACHER Shouk Atamleh

“I had always dreamed of becoming a teacher. Even as a child, I would help my classmates with their schoolwork. At the School of Nursing, we are a community that gives a lot of our time to help our students and staff thrive. I feel extremely proud when I see how much my students have achieved! When I meet them, I realise my efforts have brought fruits.”

DIRECTOR Dr Salam Hadid

“The School of Nursing plays an important part in the health system not only for the number of graduates but most importantly for the high standards of education they receive. Students from the school leave here with a special education in offering love, empathy, compassion and respect to patients. I feel extremely blessed to be serving here and pray that I help the school continue to grow and develop for the future.”

NURSE Khalil Hafi

“I always dreamed of working and helping people who were sick, so I studied at the School of Nursing. After a couple of years working in theatre in Tel Aviv, I decided to return to the Nazareth Hospital to serve our people, families and friends. It’s like family: everyone knows each other. The staff like to help and they love to work there. I enjoy working in the Nazareth Hospital. It feels like home.”
