🎉 Congratulations to our University of Louisville student Becca Carman on being named a finalist in the RiverValley Behavioral Health Youth Mental Health Art Contest!

This year’s theme, “Be Kind to Your Mind,” challenged youth across our region to share messages of hope and mental health awareness through artistic expression.

For her finalist submission, she chose to highlight Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), creating a powerful three-dimensional piece that represents the invisible internal struggles experienced by individuals living with PTSD, particularly those impacted by military trauma. Rather than using a traditional drawing or painting, she intentionally designed a 3D model to add depth and realism, encouraging viewers to reflect on the complexity of mental health and the experiences that often go unseen.

We’re proud to celebrate her creativity, compassion, and commitment to raising awareness about mental health. 💚

🩺✨ Future Nurses Inspiring Future Learners! ✨🩺

Our first-semester ABSN students recently had the opportunity to visit Camp Curiosity at Tamarack Elementary in partnership with Daviess County Public Schools (DCPS)!

Camp Curiosity is a summer enrichment program designed to support young English Language Learners through engaging, hands-on experiences that promote creativity, exploration, language development, and a love of learning. The program provides students with meaningful opportunities to discover new concepts in a fun and supportive environment.

As part of their NURS 314 Population Health course, our nursing students brought health education to life for Pre-K and Kindergarten learners through an interactive lesson focused on hand hygiene and the five senses. While using creative teaching strategies including glitter glue to demonstrate the spread of germs, squishies and sensory objects to explore touch, mystery scents to investigate smell, and music and movement to reinforce learning - students transformed important health concepts into memorable learning experiences.

These activities not only helped children develop healthy habits and gain a better understanding of how their bodies interact with the world around them, but also allowed our nursing students to strengthen their skills in health promotion, patient education, communication, and culturally responsive care.

We are proud of our ABSN students for sharing their knowledge, creativity, and compassion while making learning both meaningful and fun. Experiences like these demonstrate the power of community partnerships and the important role nurses play in promoting health across the lifespan.

We greatly appreciate our continued partnership with Camp Curiosity, Tamarack Elementary, and DCPS. Opportunities like these provide valuable learning experiences for both our nursing students and the children they serve.
