History

In the early 2000s, healthcare restrictions began making it difficult for student nurses/healthcare students to be able to experience hands-on practice. Enter both Ruth Brooks and Bunny Kastenbaum, pioneers in the use of simulated learning. In the early 2000s, Kastenbaum and Brooks led the college down an innovative path that would revolutionize the way students learned/practiced as they earned their degrees.

The expert faculty and staff of the Grace Center for Innovation in Nursing Education (Grace Center) facilitate 90,000 student hours annually in experiential learning and community outreach across programs at Edson College. 

The Center’s vision—“Knowledge & Action Join As One”—is enacted at a 45,000 sq. ft. facility located in the Mercado Complex on the Downtown Phoenix campus and through online resources. 

There’s no shortage of workforce challenges in health care and there are many innovative leaders with ideas on how to address them.

On Aug. 25,  Arizona State University’s Edson College of Nursing and Health Innovation will host an event to discuss both challenges and potential solutions at the ASU Center in California.

This past week we all returned home. Personally, I found it to be a bittersweet experience simply because I missed my family and friends, but I was slowly becoming accustomed to my life in Peru. I was able to meet great people and make amazing friends. 

We started with “hellos” and now we are ending with “goodbyes”. It has finally come to an end. Three weeks spent in Peru was most definitely a whirlwind of emotions, filled with amazing memories and experiences.
