The Veterans Administration (VA) has been committed to academic affiliate training partnerships for nearly 70 years in efforts to enhance veteran-centric health care. One such effort, the VA Nursing Academy (VANA) program, was developed in 2007 in response to the nationwide nursing shortage and began as a five-year pilot with funding competitively awarded to 15 partnerships between local VA medical centers and schools of nursing. The VANA program evolved into the VA Nursing Academic Partnership (VANAP) program following the initial pilot.
This article describes the development and evolution of the Charleston VANAP, which includes the Ralph H Johnson VA Medical Center (RHJ VAMC) and the Medical University of South Carolina College of Nursing (MUSC CON).
The VA Office of Academic Affiliations (OAA) funded a large portion of the initial five years of the Charleston VANAP. Once the national funding source ceased, the RHJ VAMC and the MUSC CON entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to offer in-kind contributions to the partnership.
The Charleston VANAP is the only program in the nation to offer three different nurse trainee programs and this article highlights some of the more notable achievements from each program.
The Charleston VANAP is a comprehensive partnership between the RHJ VAMC and the MUSC CON that truly demonstrates a commitment to assure that the very best care be provided to Veterans, our Nation's heroes.
近70年来，退伍军人事务部（VA）一直致力于学术附属机构培训合作关系，以加强以退伍军人为中心的医疗保健。其中一项举措是，VA护理学院（VANA）项目于2007年启动，以应对全国范围内的护理短缺问题，最初是一个为期五年的试点项目，资金通过竞争性方式授予当地VA医疗中心与护理学院之间的15个合作项目。在最初的试点之后，VANA项目演变为VA护理学术合作项目（VANAP）。
本文介绍了查尔斯顿VANAP的发展历程，该项目包括拉尔夫·H·约翰逊VA医疗中心（RHJ VAMC）和南卡罗来纳医科大学护理学院（MUSC CON）。
VA学术附属机构办公室（OAA）为查尔斯顿VANAP最初的五年提供了大部分资金。一旦国家资金来源终止，RHJ VAMC和MUSC CON签订了一份谅解备忘录（MOU），为该合作关系提供实物捐助。
查尔斯顿VANAP是全国唯一一个提供三种不同护士培训项目的项目，本文重点介绍了每个项目中一些较为显著的成就。
查尔斯顿VANAP是RHJ VAMC和MUSC CON之间的全面合作关系，真正体现了致力于确保为退伍军人（我们国家的英雄）提供最佳护理的承诺。
