Why CSHS

A school built by nurses, for the people who will become them.

Most of our students are working adults. Many are caregivers already. Some are the first in their family to enroll in a program like this. We built CSHS around that reality: class tracks that fit real schedules, instruction in plain language, and a faculty that treats your ambition with respect.

Founded in 2025 and led by Christopher R. Banez, PhD, MSN, RN, and Jester Lloyd T. Bautista, PhD, MSN, RN, CCRN, SCRN.

“Rigorous training. Immersive clinical experience. Humanistic values.”

01

Small cohorts, real instructors

You learn hands-on skills in a lab, not from a slideshow. Our founding faculty are doctorate-prepared registered nurses who still believe the bedside is where care is learned.

02

Clinical hours that count

Up to 112 supervised clinical hours in real facilities. You graduate having done the work, not just having read about it.

03

A pathway, not a dead end

The CNA certificate is a first rung. Home health aide and vocational nursing programs are in development, so the school you start with can be the school you grow with.
