Welcome to Marie Ortaliz Center, Inc.

Education is a process of inquiry and exploration, a collaboration between the institution and the student.  Education is achieved when a self-realization that a transcendence into a higher level of intellectual development has taken place (Ortaliz, 2014). 

Our Mission
Marie Ortaliz Center, Inc, will foster a learning environment where scholarly activities leading to the intellectual development of nurses will result in the highest quality of patient care and in the compliance of the nursing code of ethics. The core values of truth, discovery, persistence, respect for diversity and professional creativity will assist nurses in development of critical-thinking and decision-making skills for excellence in healthcare delivery.  

Our Vision

Healthcare professionals will continue the process of exploration and education appreciating that continuous learning provides power and strength in the pursuit of academic and clinical excellence.
