Gonzaga University is growing its Doctor of Nurse Anesthesia Practice program to expand enrollment.
Through a partnership with University of Washington School of Medicine, Gonzaga is building out more than 8,700 square feet of space at a new facility, according to an Oct. 1 news release from Gonzaga University.
As of Sept. 1, the university had nearly 500 applicants to its nurse anesthesia program for 28 spots in the first-year cohort. Once the expansion is completed, the program will have space for 40 students per cohort.
The expansion is expected to be completed by summer 2026, the release said.
At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
