Lebanon, KY — The Campbellsville University School of Nursing, in partnership with Spring View and Campbellsville University Online, is excited to announce a new educational collaboration that will provide discounted online RN-to-BSN and MSN coursework for Spring View Hospital employees and their families.
This partnership reflects a shared commitment to advancing the education of working nurses while supporting their continued service to communities.

Partnerships like this are a wonderful investment in our people and, ultimately, in the future of healthcare in our community.”
