Lebanon Valley College will break ground Friday on its new Nursing & Interdisciplinary Health Education Facility.
The college’s newest undergraduate major, nursing will enroll its first cohort of students this fall. The Nursing & Interdisciplinary Health Education Facility will house the Bachelor of Science in Nursing program, with an anticipated summer 2023 completion date.
Government officials will join members of the board of trustees; faculty; staff; and students for the groundbreaking.
LVC was approved for $2.7 million in Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program money from the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development and $1 million in Community Project Funding from the federal government, a release said.
Fundraising continues for the project.
Architects Noelker and Hull Associates Inc., Chambersburg, were hired to design the new academic building, next to the Jeanne and Edward H. Arnold Health Professions Pavilion. Pyramid Construction, Lemoyne, is the general contractor.
The 37,000-square-foot facility will contain five simulation labs; two skills labs with associated exam spaces; three classrooms; a wet lab; a home health simulation area; meeting rooms; study areas; and support spaces. Faculty areas include private and open offices for more than 14 faculty and staff.
