NURSE CHIOMA

Nurse Chioma Okeke is coaching and empowering nurses around the globe. The founder of Choosing Nursing is a seasoned Registered Nurse who works with Graduate Nurses to help them pass the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX).

After years of witnessing aspiring nursing students receive rejection letters from programs, active students fail the program, graduates fail the NCLEX, and practicing nurses face anxiety the first month on the job, Chioma found a new purpose. In 2012, she launched her website, choosingnursing.net.

Having spent her professional years growing in her craft, wielding her prowess in leadership roles and mentoring nurses, reading the headlines about the nursing shortage spurred her to act.

In February 2016, she took a step in a new direction and pivoted. Chioma left the practice to expand her reach and develop a program to help graduates alleviate their fears associated with passing the national licensure exam.
