Coastal Carolina University scrubs for nursing degree
Tuesday, February 23, 2010
Coastal Carolina University is inching closer to adding a bachelor’s degree in nursing, which, if approved by the state, would pave the way for a bridge program with the nursing school at Horry-Georgetown Technical College.
Developing a program that would provide more trained health care workers would be a timely addition in this economy, said Sam McClary, an economist with the S.C. Employment Security Commission.
“Health care is one of the few areas where there is demand,” he said. “It’s only one of two areas that grew between 2008 and 2009 - the other is government.”

Nurses practice in a number of venues: Hospital settings, nursing homes, assisted living centers, and home health care. Home health care nursing is a growing phenomenon as more patients and their families desire to receive care in their homes. The history of home health care stems from Public Health Nursing where public health nurses made home visits to promote health education and provide treatment as part of community outreach programs. Today academic programs train nurses in home care and agencies place home health care nurses with ailing individuals and their families depending on the nurse’s experience and qualifications. In many cases there is a shared relationship between the agency and the academic institution.Fitness Retreat
