Bliss School of Nursing
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bliss School of Nursing was a tertiary level institution established in Belize to train its registered nurses and nurse assistants, pharmacists and other medical personnel. It was built with funding from the Baron Bliss Fund established by the money the Baron left in trust to Belize after his death and hence named after him.
The campus was located on St. Joseph Street in Belize City, near the main hospital.
[edit] History
The Bliss School of Nursing was founded with monies left by Baron Bliss at about mid-century. It has trained a number of Belize's most prominent registered nurses and was the main health education-related facility in Belize up to its amalgamation.
