mission: The Faculty of Nursing Science shares the University’s commitment to teaching, research, and service and its recognition of the power of a Christian message in all we do. Our mission is to offer a professional program of study in nursing science, incorporating public health principles and practices, to prepare its graduates for effective health care service as clinicians, leaders and agents of change.

Funds raised by HNF are primarily used for operational expenses and student support at FSIL: Faculty and staff salaries • Tuition (scholarships) Utilities and building maintenance • Uniforms, textbooks Vehicles, gas, and maintenance • Room and board Library books, Internet service, etc. • Transportation to clinical sites The HNF was formed to facilitate a mechanism for churches and individual donors as well as foundations to provide funds to support the development of FSIL over the next several years. In addition, funds are raised to assist other selected projects to improve nursing care in Haiti. The HNF Board reviews requests for funding and makes decisions in order to select appropriate projects, monitors the expenditures of the FSIL on a quarterly basis to assure that the funds are being spent appropriately, and oversees the expenditures of any other approved Haiti nursing improvement projects.

FROM THE WEBSITE 1/29/10: Haiti Nursing Foundation and the FSIL School of Nursing are here for the duration. Your support translates into hope for the future of nursing and healthcare in Haiti, which this school represents. When the injured have been treated and gone home, when the visiting medical people have returned to their own countries, we will help the FSIL nursing students come back to school and complete their education. We hope you’ll join us in this effort. Visit HNF’s new Facebook page, where you’ll find links to news articles on FSIL and HNF and more: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Haiti-Nursing Foundation/251584078461?ref=ts -> Hospital in Leogane was destroyed. But the School of Nursing was built to code and is now functioning as the hospital. More warnings today that volunteers entering Haiti are taxing sanitation systems, food and water, etc. For those coordinating aid efforts, balancing needs with capabilities has to be a tremendously difficult and delicate task. Unless you are a certified first-responder, now is not the time to come. Please let the professionals do their job first as they help the Haitians through the immediate dangers and relief efforts… [Who should come?] Those who are healthy, who have specific skills such as carpentry, construction, plumbing, electrical work, to help with the first stages of rebuilding. Consider learning more Haitian Creole — 10 lessons are available for free at www.byki.com, and more lessons can be purchased. -------------------------------------------- FROM THE WEBSITE 1/29/10: Haiti Nursing Foundation and the FSIL School of Nursing are here for the duration.
