About us
We come to work every day in order to help you and the 1.4 million people like you across eastern North Carolina. In the face of a rapidly changing health care landscape — increasing competition, advancing technologies and a host of other external pressures — many health care systems lose sight of what’s important. Not ECU Health. Even as we grow, we know that progress isn’t just about moving forward. It’s about how we move forward. That’s why we’ve always been, and always will be, a mission-driven health care system. Our mission, vision and values continue to lead us on a voyage to excellence. Because the people we take care of — our neighbors, friends and family — deserve the best.

The Nursing Extern Program offers an immersive experience in nursing at ECU Health, allowing student nurses to gain valuable insights, skills and connections essential for their professional development. "We are very thankful for ECU Health’s efforts to give our students a chance to learn some of the inner workings of their profession now, before they graduate. Once they are licensed and at the bedside, their nurse managers, and more importantly their patients, will rely on them to be ready on day one, and this experience puts them in an excellent position to be ready,” said Dr. Bim Akintade, dean of the East Carolina University College of Nursing.
