Nursing has a long and respected history at Hurley

In 1909, the Hurley Hospital Training School for Nurses was established. In 1912, Hurley graduated its first class of eight students. Over the next 83 years, the Hurley School of Nursing graduated more than 3,800 nurses. Today, the collaborative four-year nursing program jointly offered by the University of Michigan-Flint and Hurley Medical Center continues that tradition.
