Summary
Avera Health has launched the Avera Nursing Advantage program in collaboration with Mount Marty University and Bishop O'Gorman Catholic High School to create a streamlined career pathway for future nurses. This initiative addresses the regional shortage of skilled nurses by providing financial support for junior and senior nursing students who gain practical experience through part-time roles at Avera facilities. Additionally, the Nursing Degree in Three program allows high school students to earn a Bachelor of Science in Nursing in three years, emphasizing early education and accelerated coursework. These programs are significant for healthcare professionals as they not only strengthen the nursing workforce but also enhance the quality of care delivered within the Avera Health system.
