1
00:00:00,033 --> 00:00:02,635
There's a nursing shortage in the world.

2
00:00:02,635 --> 00:00:06,740
And we're relying more and more on
new grads, and we have to build them up.

3
00:00:07,574 --> 00:00:09,409
Teaching is workforce development.

4
00:00:09,409 --> 00:00:11,244
Name a single occupation

5
00:00:11,244 --> 00:00:14,247
that didn't have a teacher teaching them
how to do that occupation.

6
00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:17,317
There is a shortage
in the state of Indiana for teachers.

7
00:00:18,118 --> 00:00:20,787
IU has a responsibility
to help educate,

8
00:00:20,787 --> 00:00:24,224
to help bring more teachers
into the profession.

9
00:00:24,391 --> 00:00:27,394
And I think they're doing that
through programs like Tomorrow's Teachers.

10
00:00:28,294 --> 00:00:31,564
Our partnership with IU Columbus
really allows us to create

11
00:00:31,564 --> 00:00:34,734
quality new grad nurses
who are ready to practice.

12
00:00:35,835 --> 00:00:39,572
To the community here in Columbus,
red scrubs are synonymous with good care

13
00:00:39,706 --> 00:00:42,709
because Indiana University
has such great education

14
00:00:42,709 --> 00:00:46,746
that develop nurses that are willing to go
above and beyond for their patients.

15
00:00:48,014 --> 00:00:49,649
Through the IU program I'm learning

16
00:00:49,649 --> 00:00:53,720
just how to act in different situations,
not just with the kids,

17
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:55,455
but in a workplace.

18
00:00:55,455 --> 00:00:57,557
Because of this IU program,

19
00:00:57,557 --> 00:01:01,928
I plan on coming back and being an
educator in Indiana in my community.
