In addition to the medical center, the Wiregrass Nursing Home and Rehabilitation Center will be providing clinical rotations for students.
The community college and area hospital are joining forces to expand the school's nursing program to Geneva.GENEVA, Ala. - Enterprise State Community College is joining forces with the Wiregrass Medical Center to expand their nursing program to Geneva.
Those involved hope that this will help train students and transform healthcare for the city of Geneva.”I know so often, we put them in a lab setting and try to re-enact what a hospital setting would be like. The opportunity that we are affording students here could give them hands-on, real-life, training in a clinical setting,” Amy Phillips, the nursing program coordinator at ESCC, said.
Tammy McDaniels, the quality director at the hospital knows firsthand how important this program will be for the area. ”we are excited about getting nursing students in here. We are an underserved population. This is a rural area and there are not a lot of students who come to this area and can stay. We are excited about getting the students in here, building relationships with them, and letting them see what rural healthcare is about. It is a different ball game than what you are used to when you get to a bigger area.
The $1.2 million grant will be used for small renovations to the instruction lab before welcoming their first group of students in Geneva.
