Purposes of the grant are to develop the major course in psy chiatric nursing, including class room and laboratory experiences, and to incorporate mental health and psychiatric concepts into all ,other nursing courses in the cur riculum. During the past few months local facilities available for train ing purposes have been surveyed and evaluated in terms of their value for student learning. University library holdings in the field of psychiatry, psychia trie nuirsing and related areas have been substantially increased aid more will be added. In the spring semester, work sliol sessions will aid other nurs ing faculty members in introduc irg mental health concepts into their nursing courses. U-cently, Dean Amy E. Viglione and Assoc. Prof. Clara Ramsey visited university schools of nurs ing in Arizona and Minnesota whiVh are conducting similar pro granms. "Through this project, emphasis will be directed toward the prep aration of nurses who will as sumie a more dynamic and thera peutic role in the care of patients," Dean Viglione said. "For the nursing student, de veloping an understanding of self is basic to the understanding of others," she said. "It is imperative that the nurse, who has prolonged and close relationships with pa tients, learns to recognize and understand the patient as an in dividual in terms of his feelings, thoughts and personal problems." In seeking satisfactory solutions to these problems, the nurse must assume her rightful role with other members of the health team. Especially important is the de velopment of knowledge, under standing and skill in the applica tion of procedures dealing with in terpersonal relations. D)ean Viglione said, "It is under standlable that nursing of this caliber requires close supervision and teaching to p)rotect both the p)atient and the students, and this requires a high ratio of faculty to students."
