Under the changing names of nursing school Ilanz , nursing school Ilanz , Bündner nursing school Ilanz and Bündner technical school for nursing Ilanz , a higher technical school for nursing had existed in Ilanz in the Bündner Oberland since 1940 .
The school belonged to the Ilanz monastery ( Dominican convent ) and was the oldest nursing school in the canton of Graubünden . As part of the centralization of vocational training at the Health and Social Education Center in Chur , the canton's performance mandate expired at the end of 2011 and the school had to be closed.
history
Sister Pia Dominika Bayer (1895–1976) founded what was then the Ilanz nursing school in May 1940 with nine students in order to be able to provide the St. Niklaus Ilanz Hospital with trained nursing staff. Sister Pia was a primary school teacher and headed the hospital's sister community. The curriculum provided for eight months of theory with doctors. After two years of internships, the students returned to Ilanz to take their diploma exams after a repetition.
The school had been recognized by the Swiss Red Cross since 1947 and a higher technical school since 2003 . The college had been under secular management since 1994, but was still supported by the Dominican convent. In addition to the technical school for nursing, they also ran a second important vocational school in the remote Bündner Oberland, which was founded in 1931. In 2005 the school was a founding member of the Education Region Surselva , an association with the aim of maintaining and promoting high quality education in the region.
