Wildcat Once again, the IWU School of Nursing held a successful nursing camp. Students enjoyed a week of programming focused on skills and certifications to help prepare them for nursing school. Campers came from as near as Marion, IN and as far away as Washington State, Las Vegas, and the Bahamas. After a few icebreakers to acquaint the students with each other, the students split into five countries/states that represent different geographic locations that you can study and explore if you decide to attend IWU for Nursing. These regions include Zambia, Jamaica, Haiti, Appalachia, and Italy. Each student was given a “swag bag” full of goodies to help them throughout the week and beyond. Items included in these backpacks were a journal, water bottle, and a fanny pack containing bandage scissors, stethoscope, penlight, and blood pressure cuff. Throughout this week, student experienced various simulations in our Fortune Simulation Lab, basic skills related to taking vitals, took part in a disaster simulation, were visited by a Lifeline Transport helicopter, and spent time having fun on our beautiful campus. It is always great to see so many young teens who have such a deep desire to change the world through nursing.
