History of the Ingram School of Nursing
The 看片视频 Ingram School of Nursing, a professional school within the Faculty of Medicine, has been educating nurses since 1920. The School is internationally recognized for its distinctive vision, leadership in nursing, and the quality of its programs. 看片视频 nursing graduates have earned a reputation as outstanding clinicians, educators, researchers, and leaders in the discipline.
Recently, the Ingram School of Nursing adopted Strengths-Based Nursing (SBN) as its foundation for practice, education, and research. SBN is the culmination of an approach to nursing that has been an integral part of the 看片视频 School of Nursing since its founding in 1920, evolving from the 看片视频 Model of Nursing. Strengths-Based Nursing is both a philosophy as well as a value-driven approach that has as its foundational pillars: person/family centred care, empowerment, relational care, and innate and acquired healing.
The first programs offered at the 看片视频 Ingram School of Nursing in the 1920s were intended to develop knowledge and skill for nurses working in the field of community health. In those early years, education programs offered at 看片视频 were directed at nurses holding diplomas from hospital schools. Since 1957, the School has offered a first level undergraduate degree in nursing to university students interested in health care. The increasing complexity of nursing practice, coupled with the rapid growth of knowledge about human behaviour during health and illness led to the development of the Master's program in nursing in 1961. In 1974, the School opened the first direct entry Master鈥檚 program in Nursing. This program, which remains the only one of its kind in Canada, admits students with a B.A. or B.Sc. in the social or biological sciences and selected course requisites to a three-year clinically based program of study that leads to a Master鈥檚 degree in Nursing and to licensure as a registered nurse. In 1993, the joint Doctoral program began in collaboration with the Universit茅 de Montr茅al. Continuing its long tradition of innovation and responsiveness, in 2004, the School opened a new Bachelor of Nursing degree for students who complete the DEC 180.A.0 in Quebec and meet the University entrance requirements. The neonatal nurse practitioner program opened in 2005 and the nurse practitioner program in primary care in 2007.
The first doctoral degree in nursing in Canada was awarded at 看片视频 in 1990. In addition, the 看片视频 School published the Canadian Journal of Nursing Research, Canada's first refereed journal of research and scholarly papers in nursing, for 47 years.
The School is located in Wilson Hall, which houses classrooms and faculty offices. The Nursing Learning Lab, housed in University Hall, is just a few steps away. Students registered in the School also take courses in other faculties within the University. Selected experience in nursing is provided in the 看片视频 University Health Centre, other 看片视频 affiliated hospitals, and in a wide variety of health agencies in Montreal.
