GeorgiaSouthernUniversity Eagle W
A $1.3 million federal grant will allow Georgia Southern University’s School of Nursing to put nurse practitioner students to work in paid trainee positions with five health care center organizations in southeastern Georgia. The Advanced Nursing Education Workforce, or ANEW, program is funded through the Health Resources and Services Administration of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. ANEW supports efforts to prepare advanced-practice nursing students “to practice in rural and underserved settings through academic and clinical training,” states the program’s webpage.
