More about Chaminade College Preparatory
Located in the Chatsworth/West Hills area of Los Angeles, California (ZIP 91311), it is not a healthcare facility but rather an educational institution that employs a school nurse to manage health services for students and staff. The school nurse role focuses on assessing, evaluating, maintaining, and improving the health of students and staff; strengthening the educational process by protecting health status; identifying and modifying health-related barriers to learning; and promoting prevention of illness and disability. This is a single-nurse or small health services team environment within a school setting, not a clinical or hospital nursing role.
Chaminade's mission is to develop the inherent spiritual, intellectual, emotional, and physical potential of young men so they are prepared for success in college and life. The school emphasizes the Five Characteristics of Catholic Marianist Education, including educating for formation in faith, and promoting a faith and culture dialogue. The school fosters a Catholic school environment and values empathy, cultural responsiveness, and community.
