Nursing Department receives grant for smoking cessation education

 

The Grants Development Office is pleased to announce that our nursing department received funds from The National Cancer Institute (part of the National Institutes of Health) to integrate a tobacco cessation training program into the nursing curriculum.

This grant is part of a collaborative proposal with Albany Medical College as the lead applicant. Albany Medical College and Hudson Valley’s nursing program have developed collaborative simulation exercises as part of multi-disciplinary education. Collaboration on the tobacco cessation counseling project is an extension of this work.
