February 11, 2020 – Cincinnati, OH – Galen College of Nursing wants to give you a glimpse of what it’s like to walk in a nurse’s shoes during the “Explore Nursing Pathways” event. The interactive event, which will be held from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Monday, February 24 at the campus, 100 E. Business Way #200, will give prospective students and guests hands-on demonstrations with high-tech simulation mannequins.
These realistic simulators respond while participants take blood pressures, listen to heart sounds, and practice first-aid skills. Nurses will be available to answer questions regarding real-life nursing pathways to enter nursing, career development, and job outlook.
As baby boomers age, veteran nurses are retiring in greater numbers, and the demand for nurses is increasing. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the career outlook for registered nurses is projected to grow 12% from 2018 to 2028, much faster than the average for all occupations. Graduates do not have to wonder about jobs after graduation, for many students are fortunate to have secured employment even before they graduate.
Those who are interested in attending the “Explore Nursing Pathways” event may RSVP by emailing explorenursing@galencollege.dev. Event numbers will be limited to allow all participants to have a quality experience.
