SHANNEX AND UNB PARTNER FOR AGING RESEARCH AND NURSING EDUCATION
Shannex and UNB have signed a $1 million partnership agreement to expand education and research in the field of life transitions and older adult care.
Half of Shannex’s strategic investment – $500,000 – will be used to establish the Shannex Research Chair in Aging Transitions as part of UNB’s Integrated Health Initiative (IHI).
Shannex will provide $400,000 to UNB’s Faculty of Nursing
in Fredericton to support the development of a Shannex LongTerm Care Summer Institute and a new Care of the Older Adult certificate program.
A further $100,000 will be dedicated to the construction of a Shannex Aging Transitions Lab in the soon to be completed Health and Social Innovation Centre (HSIC) on UNB’s Saint John campus to support the work of the chair and the interdisciplinary research team the chair will lead.
newsletter included the UNB-MAHE Summer Institute and visit from Manipal students, faculty, and other delegates including the Consul General of India, Siddhartha Nath. President Mazerolle also featured the Nursing Education Design Summit, which was led by the UNB Faculty of Nursing and brought a range of university, government, and community stakeholders to examine and envision the– BN student and RN role in long-term care. Possibilities for a mentorship program that would better prepare and motivate students toward careers in long-term care.
The UNB and Shannex partnership for aging research and nursing education was also recognized.
NURSING EDUCATION DESIGN SUMMIT
In May 2024, the UNB Faculty of Nursing hosted a Nursing Education Design Summit. This two-day event brought together a range of stakeholders including educators, policy makers, and long-term care directors to discuss how to best prepare BN students for careers in the long-term care sector. Based on the aging population nationally and in New Brunswick, care of the older adult in community and in long-term care settings is of critical importance and will require leadership among nurses and allied health professionals.
The Nursing Education Design Summit facilitated discussion of challenges and opportunities related to older adult health including opportunities within nursing education that can lay the groundwork for innovative and compassionate care of older adults and careers in long-term care.
