St. George's Deemed Hospital is considering moving its nursing college to the Hospicio campus to free up beds for patients.
St. George's Deemed Hospital, a prominent teaching hospital, has announced that it may shift its nursing college to the Hospicio campus to increase patient capacity.
The decision follows a review of bed occupancy rates, with the aim of freeing up a significant number of beds currently used for teaching purposes.
Hospital officials stated that the relocation would not compromise the quality of nursing education, as the Hospicio campus already possesses adequate facilities.
The proposal remains under consideration, with stakeholders including hospital administration and nursing faculty set to discuss logistics and timelines.
