Permanent URI for this communityhttps://scholarworks.montana.edu/handle/1/56

The MSU-Bozeman College of Nursing was founded in 1937 and has received continuous national accreditation since 1949. Since its inception, the College has been a multi-campus program, making effective use of educational and clinical resources in the state. The College's administration is located on the main campus of MSU-Bozeman, where most undergraduate students complete lower division nursing requirements. Students move to one of the campuses located in the state's major populations areas, Bozeman, Billings, Great Falls, Kalispell, and Missoula, to complete their upper division course work. With their greater population concentrations, these communities possess health care facilities that provide the degree of complexity, size and diversity of patient population needed for upper division clinical experience. Each of the College's campuses has resident faculty who serve both undergraduate and graduate students.

    Development of the Blackfeet Community Hospice Project: Pilot Workshop
    (SAGE Publications, 2022-08) Colclough, Yoshiko; Brown, Gary M
    Taboo perception on talking about death and dying among American Indians/Alaska Natives is prevalent. This suppressive value makes hospice introduction difficult, leading hospice disparity. Working together by using a community-based participatory research approach over a decade, we conducted a 6-hour workshop including information sharing and group activities. The purpose of the study was to investigate the community readiness for end-of-life knowledge by conducting a public workshop. We used pre- and post-workshop surveys with Likert-type responses to five questions to assess the effect of workshop in end-of-life knowledge. Thirty individuals participated the workshop; 80% of them reported their knowledge increase on at least one question. While the survey had concerns, positive participant responses indicated readiness and appropriateness to use workshops to increase end-of-life knowledge.
