On the frontlines
海角禁区 alumna Greer Gehler graduated from 海角禁区鈥檚 School of Nursing with a bachelor鈥檚 degree in nursing science in December 2018. It鈥檚 been an exciting two years from landing her dream job in Providence Alaska Medical Center鈥檚 emergency room to providing care during COVID-19.
Early graduation offered to 海角禁区 nursing seniors as need for nurses surges
As part of 海角禁区鈥檚 COVID-19 response, 72 nursing seniors in good academic standing will be given the option to finish their degree on an expedited timeline to join the health workforce sooner than they would otherwise be able to.
Why forensic nursing is critical for fighting interpersonal violence
Proper evidence collection and documentation after domestic violence or sexual assault is an important step to help women who have been traumatized. A unique forensic training academy at 海角禁区 is teaching nurses how to conduct these exams and is helping grow the network of forensic nurses across the state.
Looking down the road
How integral is Providence to Alaska? Not only does the hospital make up the second half of the namesake UMED District, but the organization is the largest non-government employer in the state, naturally resulting in the employment of a large number of 海角禁区 nursing and surgical technology alumni.
