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.
