ORROW â Clayton State University and Georgia Gwinnett College announced this week they have formed a new partnership to create a pathway to increase the number of undergraduate nursing students earning an advanced degree.
Under the new agreement, an undergraduate nursing student will complete their bachelorâs degree at GGC, then be eligible to enroll at Clayton State to earn a Master of Science in Nursing â Family Nurse Practitioner degree.
âThis is a great example highlighting the collaborative efforts colleges and universities are undertaking to more effectively grow the ranks of advanced nursing professionals in order to meet the primary care access needs in our area,â said Michael Scott, chief nurse administrator at Clayton State Universityâs School of Nursing. âCommitted groups on both campuses worked really hard to make this a reality.â
St. Catherine Hospital in East Chicago named Nina Stur its new chief nursing officer and president of patient care services.
Stur started as a registered nurse in the medical surgical unit at the hospital 37 years ago, and has served as interim chief nursing officer since January. She previously served as director of case management and associate director of patient care services at St. Catherine, filling each position for a decade.
âNina is a dynamic and well-respected collaborator with extensive knowledge of the patient population, accreditation processes, wellness initiatives and innovative nursing practices,â CEO and Administrator Leo Correa said.
Stur became director of nursing and nurse clinician at the hospital in 1990, and went on to become the clinical case manager three years later. In that role, she served as consultant to doctors, patients and families on everything from diagnoses to discharges.
