The funds have enabled the Nursing Program to upgrade its Learning Resource Center Simulation Lab, which is a state-of-the-art facility featuring an observation room, audio and video recording for simulations, new lab equipment including wall units for oxygen and suction systems to simulate the hospital environment. This lab provides students increased opportunities to practice and learn their skills and enables the University to maintain high standards in nursing education.
In addition, the funds will also be used to provide scholarships for Nursing and Health Science students, graduate education and continued professional development for faculty and will fund computer lab support and recruitment and retention initiatives.
“Through this continued partnership with TakeCare, the University of Guam’s Nursing and Health Sciences programs have been strengthened,” said Dr. Margaret Hattori-Uchima, dean of the School of Nursing and Health Sciences. “We appreciate the support and will continue to use the funding to enhance our programs.” (PR)
