Aircraft
Shortly after takeoff; the aircraft indicated a Nose Wheel Steering failure. The First Officer was pilot flying. Once a safe altitude was reached; the Captain assigned Radios and Flight Controls to the First Officer and verbally completed the QRH. Upon completion of the QRH the failure still persisted. The Captain then notified; Flight Attendants; Passengers; and the Company. He also [advised] ATC and asked to roll fire trucks. The flight continued [to the destination]. The First Officer made an absolutely beautiful landing and maintained positive aircraft control all the way to a complete stop. When the aircraft was stopped; the Captain initiated the After Landing checklist and shutdown. The Tow Team met the aircraft and towed it from the runway to the gate. The aircraft arrived at the gate; on time; with no reported aircraft damage or passenger injury.
