If you have to go to school in summer, you might as well have a great spot for it. UW and GU students are set!!

Last week, our admission specialist attended the Inland Northwest Nurse Educator Conference hosted right here on campus. The event brought together clinical and academic nursing educators, as well as Nursing Professional Development (NPD) specialists from all levels of the field.

One of our favorite highlights was the opportunity for attendees to write thank-you notes to the nurses who shaped their own professional journeys.

Dean Julie Wolter is excited to show off the newest addition to School of Health Sciences learning environments! Students in the Doctor of Nurse Anesthesia Practice program will soon inhabit these spaces - clinical practice rooms and student lounges - in the UW-GU Health Partnership building soon!

Throughout National Nurses Week, we honor the quiet, everyday moments of care—listening to a worried family, managing complex symptoms, and offering comfort at 3 a.m.—that define the heart of nursing. Thank you to all nurses whose skill and compassion restore dignity, ease suffering, and walk with patients through some of their most vulnerable days. You make an impact!
