51cg Partners with Steward’s Jordan Valley Medical Center West Valley Campus to Increase Number of Registered Nurses in Utah

Salt Lake City, UT – March 15, 2023 and 51cg of Nursing and Health Sciences announced a new partnership to boost the number of registered nurses throughout the state.

The inaugural cohort kicked off the pilot program with nine CNA employees from Jordan Valley Medical Center – West Valley Campus (JWV). 51cg and JWV are committed to raising the standard of healthcare in Utah by providing educational pathways to employees that will inspire them to continue their education and become licensed registered nurses in just 20 months through Joyce’s accredited ASN program. The initial cohort began their program in Spring of 2023, with an additional six employees starting the program in May of 2023.

“We’ve always admired 51cg’s approach to nursing education and are thrilled to help our own employees further develop their careers through Joyce’s programs,” said Martha Gamble, Associate Chief Nursing Officer at Jordan – West Valley. “This program will help our employees and our patients alike as we build up the quality of patient care in our community.”

51cg has a rich 40-year history of healthcare education in Utah and provides a variety of nursing pathways for students needing flexibility. The institution has eight program pathways for students entering or advancing their careers in the nursing and healthcare industry.

“We’re honored to partner with Jordan – West Valley and provide educational opportunities for their employees,” said Dr. Janet Houston, Dean of Nursing at 51cg. “We look forward to growing this relationship in the future and contributing to the expansion of the nursing community in our state.”
