Community Project Funding/Congressionally Directed Spending - Construction - USC Lancaster Center for Healthcare Workforce Development Project Abstract: USC Lancaster has a rich history of providing health care education beginning nearly 50 years ago with an associate degree in Technical Nursing in collaboration with York Technical College to its current Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) Collaborative Program with the USC Columbia College of Nursing. USC Lancaster has housed over the years various health-related programs including physical therapy, diabetes education, cardiac rehabilitation, and cancer rehab. We are currently in desperate need to strengthen the healthcare workforce, especially in rural South Carolina. USC Lancaster is positioned to function as the driving force to address this important need through the development of a new Center for Healthcare Workforce Development. The USCL CHWD (USCLCHWD) would unite current programs, develop new educational pathways, and strengthen healthcare partnerships in the region by implementing a durable educational structure for training current and future healthcare workforce at all professional levels to meet the significant healthcare needs in South Carolina. Additionally, the Center would provide access to resources to assure continued high-quality services. These resources include interprofessional educational opportunities, high fidelity simulation of low volume, high-risk cases, as well as networking opportunities. Currently USC Lancaster is offering a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) to Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) Pathway program. This program utilizes a USC Lancaster course to train students in basic nursing skills while preparing them for the Certified Nursing Assistant Exam. Rural South Carolina, including the USC Lancaster healthcare partners, are experiencing a significant shortage of skilled healthcare workers. This educational pathway provides students with a certification and employment opportunities while they are continuing their path to a BSN degree. It also can be an opt-out point for those students who, for several reasons, do not continue the BSN program to completion. For those who do, the CNA to BSN Pathway equips them for success in their clinical nursing courses yielding increased numbers of BSN graduates annually. Additionally, USC Lancaster is developing a Health Coaching Pathway Program as another approach to meet the vast healthcare needs of the surrounding community and our healthcare partners as well as creating an innovative approach to a career in healthcare. The establishment of the USCL CHWD will create the most updated classrooms and labs which in turn will allow for an expansion of partnerships and innovative approaches in the future to assure the healthcare workforce meets community needs.
