La Salle University Work Values

Daily Duties at La Salle University:

Education of nursing students in the art and science of psychiatric nursing for individuals of all ages and mental health needs.

What they like about La Salle University:

The social vibrance of a hiring firm is very important to you. Your ability to make and maintain friendships there is a critical part of your decision. You would likely be dissatisfied with a workplace that is quiet, cold, or otherwise not particularly social. When you investigate a new hiring company, ask recruiters, managers, and potential co-workers about the social life and opportunities there. This is especially important when you are relocating; moving dramatically alters your social sphere both inside and outside the workplace.
