Parish Nurse - Student Health Care
The Parish Nurse Ministry at Luther Seminary is a holistic
approach to health care, bringing together aspects of faith and
health through education, counseling and assisting members of the
seminary community with health care choices.
One facet is the Healthy Leaders
Initiative, which helps students become aware of their lifestyle and its impact on their well being.
It's purpose is to help the student identify positive behaviors
which will enable them be good stewards of their God given gifts and
model healthy lifestyles for those they will serve in the parish and
community.
The Parish Nurse program is a partnership with Lyngblomsten
Corporation.
