WMU Bronson School of Nursing
The Nurse Intern program, over the past 5 years has grown from one school and 7 interns to a collaboration among two 2 nursing programs working with a number of medical providers to bring health education and support into 7 schools. In addition to KPS and KCIS, WMU Bronson School of Nursing has readily collaborated with other key partners to meet the needs of students. Key partners such as:
o Medical Alliance – an anti-violence program,
o Safe Kids – provided bike helmets and “protect your brain” program materials.
o The Children’s Hospital at Bronson on health fairs during family nights at schools.
o KVCC School of Nursing to share effective strategies
By developing effective, flexible programming in the changing environment of schools, WMU Bronson School of Nursing, through their example and willingness to share resources with other community partners is a shining example of a true collaborative partnership.
WMU Bronson School of Nursing, congratulations on your 2008 Champ Award!
