| Submitted in Previous Year(s) | No |
|---|
| Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale | The units that we have are 14 years old. The retention rate has increased and we have had larger class sizes and less equipment to use during the skill development and testing for this procedure. It is a complicated rotation for faculty observation/supervision and infection control procedures with limited equipment. If one of the older units were to be unavailable then it would require another section or over time for the summer session. |
|---|
| Consequences of this initiative not being funded | Possibly require another section to adequately prepare the students. As it is the faculty donate their time to complete the necessary clinical requirements. |
|---|
| Department Goals | To replace clinical equipment that would be considered a capital item and could not be purchased from the instructional line- specifically operator stools and sterilization equipment. Lockers for the locker room would also fit this goal, To purchase another portable nitrous oxide/oxygen unit to supplement the 14 year old units that we have and to accommodate larger class size. |
