University Hospitals Future Nurse Academy Program students

This summer, Kent State's College of Nursing welcomed high school students participating in the University Hospitals Future Nurse Academy program to campus for a tour and hands-on practice in our simulation labs.

Faculty researchers from 5X社区鈥檚 College of Nursing recently received nearly $4 million in grant funding from the Health Resources and Services Administration to develop an LPN-to-BSN pathway called the LPN Education Advancement Program (LEAP).  The program will provide licensed practical nurses at University Hospitals the opportunity to increase their skill set by removing barriers that may have prevented them from furthering their education.
