Nurses promote health in Peru
Ann Barrow


Eleven senior nursing students spent their Spring Break in a unique way this year. On February 28, they departed for the Augustinian Mission in Chulucanas, Peru, representing a clinical option for their Health Promotion course. Accompanying them were College of Nursing faculty, Assistant Professors Elizabeth Keech, Karen McKenna, and Debbie Wimmer. The trip was arranged with the assistance of Campus Ministry and Rev. Richard Appicci, O.S.A., Director of the Augustinian Missions. Six campus ministry students also went to Chulucanas for a service project where they rebuilt the walls of a home of an elderly villager.
