For the first time in history, the Cayman Islands now has homegrown, full-fledged nurses. Four years of hard work and dedication have paid off for the UCCI School of Nursing as they once again achieved a historic milestone few, if any, can claim: 100% passing rate for their inaugural cohort at the Regional Examination for Nurses’ Registration (RENR).

The RENR is the ultimate point in the journey of nursing students across the Caribbean region. Without passing it, no student can obtain the title “Registered Nurse” (RN) nor practice as one.

In a letter dated November 15, the Registrar of the Nursing Council of Jamaica (NCJ), Mrs. Merle Rochester-Riley congratulated UCCI President J.A. Roy Bodden saying, “Ten students sat the RENR, and all ten were successful.”
