Show College-Hospital Plan Training Utah State Agricultural college has completed an arrangement with the William Budge Memorial Memor-ial hospital school of nursing in Logan whereby two full quarters of college training will be given to student nurses before they begin be-gin hospital duty, Dean W. L. Wanlass, chairman of the college committee . arranging details of the program, has announced. The training which will reduce the hospital training period for nurses from 30 to 24 months and thus speed up nurse training by 25 per cent, will begin during the USAC summer session. About 20 student nurses are expected ex-pected to begin the course at the opening of summer session and are scheduled to continue this work until the end of next winter quarter, when another group of about the same number will begin training, Dean Wanlass said. The students will study general and technical subjects, including bacteriology, physiology, English and sociology. The entire program is conducted under the Bolton act, which provides for expense-paid training of nurses. Student nurses from the Budge hospital previously have studied on a part time basis at USAC, but no definite full-time program has been available to them under the old arrangement. |
