Gurnick Academy We have been training America's future healthcare workers with nursing, medical imaging, and therapy career training programs since 2004.

The San Jose campus is located in a 40,000-square-foot, two-story professional building, just minutes from the San Jose Mineta International Airport. The first floor houses the administrative offices, while the second floor houses eight classrooms and nine labs. Labs are equipped with ultrasound machines capable of performing general and specialized procedures, hi-lo treatment tables, exercise equipment, hospital beds, mannequins, and equipment for examination and diagnostic assistance, including scales, EKG machines, and urine and blood testing. The nursing interactive simulation room contains four specialty rooms with high-fidelity mannequins, controlled from an observation room via a two-way communication system and cameras.

Some habits deserve to be ghosted 👻

Especially before starting healthcare school.

You don’t need to feel 100% ready on day one.
You don’t need to know everything before you begin.
And you definitely don’t have to figure it all out alone.

At Gurnick Academy, students build confidence step by step through classroom learning, lab practice, feedback, and support.

There’s a moment when everything you’ve been learning starts to feel real. 💙

For J. Hall, that moment came during his first rotation. New environment, real experience, and the chance to finally put what he’d learned into practice.
Sometimes that first step is the one that makes you think, “Yeah… I can actually do this.”

Could you picture yourself having that moment too? Comment “PTA” and let’s talk about the Physical Therapist Assistant Program.

“WE MADE IT” hits a little differently when you know everything that came before it. 🥹🎓

The stressful days, the group chats, the studying, the laughing when you probably should’ve been studying…

And then somehow, this day arrives.

Graduates, what’s one memory from school you know you’ll never forget?🥹

Some lessons become much more meaningful when students get to see the impact behind them. 🦿💙

Our A.S. in Physical Therapist Assistant Program students visited Prosthetic Solutions in Santa Clara to explore rehabilitation for individuals with limb loss.

Students learned more about what it can take to help someone adapt to a new prosthetic, how physical therapist assistants may work alongside prosthetists, and why patient advocacy matters throughout the rehabilitation process.

It’s one thing to study these concepts in class. It’s another to see how they can become part of someone’s journey toward greater mobility and independence.

Thank you, Prosthetic Solutions for welcoming our students and giving them the opportunity to learn from your team. 💙

Paulina remembers feeling nervous about injections when she started clinical practice.

With practice and support, the skill that once felt intimidating became something she could approach with more confidence. 💙

What part of starting nursing school would make you most nervous?

A beautiful day for a meaningful cause. 💜

Gurnick Academy’s Sacramento Campus took part in the Walk to End Alzheimer’s, standing alongside the community in support of Alzheimer’s awareness.

Sunshine, purple flowers, and a shared purpose made this a special day for everyone involved.
