New nursing college opens in Norfolk

Thursday, August 12, 2010

An effort to address a nursing shortage in northeast Nebraska has culminated in completion of an $11.9 million nursing college in Norfolk.

The J. Paul and Eleanor McIntosh College of Nursing on the Northeast Community College campus is the result of a partnership between Northeast and the University of Nebraska Medical Center College of Nursing. It is the only public-supported nursing college in northeast Nebraska.

“The addition of UNMC’s Northern Nursing Division will pay dividends for generations to come by addressing critical health care needs and giving our best and brightest the educational opportunities they need to be of service to others,” Nebraska Speaker of the Legislature Mike Flood of Norfolk said in a news release.

Flood has been credited with seeing the need for the college and building support for it.

Students will start classes in the 43,747-square-foot building this month. Some 32 students are now enrolled in Bachelor of Science nursing classes.

Nearly 400 students in nursing, basic nurse aide and medication aide are expected to attend classes in the new college.

The facility was built following a capital campaign that ended in May 2009 after Norfolk philanthropists J. Paul and Eleanor McIntosh gave $1 million.

The college will house all of Northeast’s basic nurse aide, medication aide, practical nursing and associate degree nursing programs and the UNMC College of Nursing’s undergraduate and graduate-level programs.

Northeast classes start Monday, while UNMC classes start Aug. 23.

Faith Regional Health Services of Norfolk and other area hospitals and nursing homes will be clinical training sites for Northeast and UNMC nursing students.

The college will feature distance education classrooms, simulated medical office exam and hospital rooms, and patient simulators.Read Full Article
