New LVN Program Founder Sees Strong Start at Howard College
Meador, new director of Surgery at Kessler General Hospital, aims to build a robust nursing program as Howard College expands an LVN course at its Lamesa campus. Six students completed the course this year with others dropping out, amid a noted nationwide shortage of medical personnel. Meador, son of local ambulance operators, trained at Baylor University Medical Center and St. Paul Hospital, holds a nursing degree from TWU earned in 1976. The 52 week program blends 40 hours weekly classes with extensive clinical rotations across medical, surgical, obstetrics, pediatrics, and geriatrics, plus a hospital clinic rotation.
