WGU Indiana campaign to honor night shift nurses with appreciation kits, scholarships, prizes

Western Governors University-Indiana’s Night Shift Nurses campaign is coming up to honor night shifters who working an extra grueling hour on the clock when Daylight Saving Time hits on Sunday, Nov. 6.

To prepare for this statewide event, the university is hosting its annual “Packing Party” on Wednesday, Oct. 26, to create appreciation kits that will serve more than 2,500 night shift nurses and healthcare workers throughout Indiana.

This year, in addition to the WGU Night Shift Workers Scholarship (worth up to $4,000), WGU’s also giving nurses a chance to win a spa package for them and four of their coworkers.

Alison Bell, Chancellor of WGU Indiana, and Janelle Keller, WGU Indiana Prelicensure Clinical Operations Supervisor, joined us Monday on “Life.Style.Live!” to share more about this event.
