TEXAS (KAUZ) – According to the Office of the Texas Governor, 24 grants totaling more than $5.8 million have been approved for graduate medical and nursing schools to help train doctors and nurses in emergency and trauma care and expand the state’s healthcare workforce.
“Texas doctors and nurses ensure patients have access to lifesaving care when it matters most.
This funding will expand emergency and trauma programs across the state to provide students with the education and resources they need and strengthen the Texas workforce.”
The grants are possible through the Emergency and Trauma Care Education Partnership Program (ETEP), according to the Office of the Governor.
“This grant program supports training for high-need specialty areas, such as emergency medicine, pediatric emergency medicine and surgical critical care.
Having more well-trained doctors and nurses with critical care expertise will improve the wellbeing of countless Texans and broaden access to emergency medical care across our state.”
