NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — This week, Nurses Middle College Nashville has partnered with local universities to provide a free summer camp for 34 rising 7th and 8th graders to get first-hand experience in the nursing and healthcare field.
The students spent their first two days of the camp at Belmont University, before visiting the Tennessee State University School of Nursing Thursday.
The goal of the camp is to continue to diversify the healthcare field in the future while showing young people the opportunities they have in the fields.

Here’s a beautiful story of how one mother turned her grief journey into a gathering of gratitude… and organ donation awareness.
Robb Coles highlights a special event organized by Cari Hollis – whose 26-year old son Austin died two years ago. Austin agreed to be an organ donor – and that single gesture saved multiple lives.
Cari reached out to as many recipients she could find – several of whom traveled to Nashville for an emotional celebration in Austin’s honor. One woman – whose life was saved by receiving Austin’s lungs – put it simply: “He’s my angel”.
