We, students of nursing, believe there is a common need to organize, to represent ourselves to the general public and among other health disciplines, and to assume our rightful place as professionals within the healthcare spectrum. We believe every citizen has a right to the highest quality health care. We believe in the development of the nurse as a whole person by helping students to fulfill duties of his/her professional role in maintaining personal integrity and professional rights, responsibilities, and ideals. We believe that each student contributes to the organization in his/her own manner and capacity, without exclusion, and that together we work towards a better future as both individual nurses and for the profession of nursing as a whole.
