Description:

The purpose of this grant is to support Halifax Community College (HCC) in providing its nursing students with focused, clinical experiences and remediation opportunities as it reaches full-capacity enrollment in the ADN program. In addition to upgrading its simulation lab, HCC will both hire an enrollment/retention specialist and provide professional development to staff to ensure optimal delivery of instruction. The college anticipates the project will improve nursing graduation rates, better prepare its nursing students to pass the NCLEX (nursing licensure exam) and fill vacant nursing jobs in the area. Golden LEAF funds will be used for simulation equipment, professional development and personnel.
