Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN)

"The psychiatric field of nursing is one that is often forgotten and not taken as seriously as it should be. People often forget that psychiatric health is just as important as physical health. As a future nurse, I want to be someone who my patients can count on. I believe everyone deserves to have their story heard and not feel judged while doing so."

-Taylor Roussey, IU School of Nursing Fort Wayne BSN graduate
