York University’s unique Master of Science in Nursing program was developed in response to changing attitudes towards the practice of nursing. York answers a growing demand for healthcare services and practitioners that focus on the experiences of human beings in a way that respects patients' values and choices about health and quality of life. This recognizes that every patient has a personal story.
