Walk with Western- Nursing!

A blast from the past! Eleven years ago we converted the nursing storage closet to create a SimLab.

The students in the photos are now RNs providing care in our community, growing the next generation of nurses!

Our nursing students are gaining hands-on experience! We are so grateful for MHSC’s continued partnership and the incredible support their team provides in helping our students grow into confident, compassionate healthcare professionals.

Memorial Hospital of Sweetwater County is proud to welcome the fourth group of nursing students to the Medical-Surgical Unit. WWCC has four groups of N3 students who complete their clinical rotations on the Medical Surgical unit at MHSC. We value our partnership with WWCC and are committed to supporting the next generation of nurses. Thank you to our nursing staff for warmly welcoming these future healthcare professionals.
