Nursing mentoring program starts at WCC
Monday, December 28, 2009
BELLINGHAM - Bellingham nurse practitioner Angela Belcaster first got into nursing about 30 years ago and understands the struggles of being a new nurse, battling burnout, stress and feelings of inadequate skills.
Now she’s trying to help make the next generation of nurses more confident and prepared for careers by sharing her experiences with Whatcom Community College students through the new RN Mentorship program.
Belcaster is one of 30 nurses who have volunteered to mentor 30 first-year nursing students in WCC’s program in an effort to increase retention when those students enter the job market. By sharing their own experiences and letting students know that most new nurses have the same fears, Belcaster and others hope to ease the transition into the profession.

Nurse practitioners play key role in providing health care
Monday, November 23, 2009
YAKIMA, Wash.—After eight years of working as an advanced registered nurse practitioner at a busy medical clinic in Yakima, Greg Swart decided to hang out his own stethoscope.
It’s an unusual move. Only a handful—7 percent—of the roughly 3,600 nurse practitioners in the state practice autonomously, that is, outside the direct supervision of a medical doctor.
But nurse practitioners and other allied health professionals are poised to become important warriors on the front lines of primary-care medicine, where projections of a shortage have many policy experts worried about the real impact of health care reform that expands coverage to nearly everyone.
