School of Nursing Receives $3.65 Million Gift Bentson Foundation gift to fund construction of Healthy Communities Innovation Center  The new gift, the largest in the history of the School of Nursing, provides $3.65 million to construct a new skills-learning environment, replacing the 25-year-old facility currently used by bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral students. Renovating this space is a major step toward achieving the school’s goals for reshaping nursing education to meet the dramatic changes in the interdisciplinary health care environment.
 The renovation will create high-tech learning spaces that more closely match the settings in which health care is delivered, making it possible to teach advanced nursing skills in environments that span the continuum of care. It also will support team-based, interprofessional learning. The project will include acute, skilled, ambulatory and home-care settings, equipped with electronic health record technology, portable computers and wireless mobile technology used in telehealth.
