Gulf Coast State College’s plans to create a new program this Fall to help Licensed practical nurses train to become registered nurses.
The school says that a nursing shortage has prompted the creation of the new program and now they want to hear from members of the public who might benefit from it.
The Gulf/Franklin Center in Port St. Joe will host a Community Forum next Tuesday to introduce the new LPN to RN Transition Class.
The discussions will include class requirements, expectations and opportunities, in addition to a more general discussion of the future education and training needs for Gulf and Franklin county residents.
Speakers at the forum will include Gulf Coast State College’s Nursing Coordinator, and the Gulf/Franklin Center Director.
Attendees will also have the opportunity to fill out a needs assessment survey and everyone who completes the survey that night will be entered in a drawing for a 100 dollar book voucher.
If you would like to attend, the forum will be held next Tuesday evening from 6:30 to 7:30 at the Gulf/Franklin Center in Port St. Joe.
For more information call the school at 227-9670.
