UH Future Nurse Academy

The UH Future Nurse Academy is a two-week paid program designed to expose high school students to a career in nursing. Students are nurtured with the thoughtful support of UH clinicians and partners and focuses on well-being techniques, shadowing clinical rotations and hands-on experience to learn different nursing skills. For more information, please visit UHhospitals.org/Nurse-Academy.
