School Description

Provided by Cabarrus College of Health Sciences

Cabarrus College of Health Sciences is an independent, post-secondary education institution affiliated with NorthEast Medical Center in Concord, NC. The College provides undergraduate heath sciences education to qualified men and women from Cabarrus and surrounding counties which results in their developing the knowledge, attitudes and competencies to function as informed, responsible citizens and to serve in their communities as compassionate practitioners in their chosen helath discipline.

Cabarrus County Hospital opened a three-year diploma school of nursing to help meet the demand for registered nurses for both the military and civilian populations during World War II. Sixteen students entered the program on February 2, 1942 and were taught by a small teaching staff, including physicians. The National League for Nursing accredited the School of Nursing in 1963. In 1966, due to increasing enrollment, additional classrooms, library facilities, faculty and staff were necessary. The three-year curriculum was decreased to thirty-three months.

With the growing needs of the health care industry and subsequently the physical space needs of the College, we have teamed with NorthEast Medical Center, and the NEMC Foundation, to fund and build a new college facility on the NorthEast Medical Center campus that opened in January 2004.

Throughout the year, students have social functions that are planned by various student groups. Many cultural and educational opportunities are available in Concord, Charlotte, and other surrounding cities. Nearby Wingate University, Davidson College, Catawba College, UNC-Charlotte and Pfeiffer University schedule lectures, programs and social functions, many of which are open to the public, that students may attend.
