Health Care at Shenandoah

So you want to help people?

Shenandoah offers a breadth of opportunities and experiences to prepare you to help others and excel in your career aspirations.

There are many different areas of health care, and emerging fields are developing and being added to Shenandoah’s fleet of health care programs every year. 

Shenandoah is not new to health professions. We’re nationally ranked in many programs, and we’ve been teaching in the health care field for many decades. Offering cutting-edge, interdisciplinary programs that connect across a wide variety of disciplines, whichever program you select will make you an invaluable part of the health care team and allow you to pursue your passion of helping others with excellence.

I’ve always known I wanted to help others and enjoy going to work everyday. I spent some time looking into different healthcare careers and once I came across pharmacy, I couldn’t see myself doing anything else. My immediate thought was to be able to educate my family and my community about their healthcare options, but ultimately I want to help as many people as possible to get adequate and affordable healthcare.
