7 thoughts on “As shortage of nurses grows, IU Health gives Ivy Tech $8.75M to expand nursing program

  1. Hopefully the big and great nursing schools in Indiana expand their programs too. Specifically, IUPUI (#31 in nursing), Purdue (#120 in nursing), and IU (unranked).

  2. This is good news and is needed due to the shortage of nurses. It makes me wonder if similar measures will be needed in the future to attract teachers to the profession in light of greater demands, and the meddling of the state legislature into all parts of public education. Food for thought …

  3. Serious question – are the nurses coming out of Ivy Tech educated to the level that is what is in demand? The story says that Ivy Tech is graduating nurses with Associates Degrees, but does that meet the demand, or is the demand for BSNs? And if the expanded Ivy Tech program isn’t meeting the demand, then are there expanded Associates to BSN programs coming? This sounds like a great start but it seems like it would fall short of accomplishing what’s truly needed to solve the problem.
