Introduction and welcome.
The site acknowledging the contribution made to the profession by the Oldham School of Nursing.
Geoff Smith ex Tutor/Lecturer from the Oldham School of Nursing would welcome historical contributions from anyone in connection with the original school before it amalgamated with Bury and Rochdale Schools. Email Townleyhall @fsmail.net
Amalgamation.
In 1988 Oldham first amalgamated with the Bury and Rochdale Schools of nursing to become the West Pennine College of Health studies. In 1994 a further amalgamation took place with Bolton and Salford Schools and the Northern College was established. The final merger in 1996 was with the University of Salford.
Records.
In September of 1999 old records from the Oldham School of Nursing were taken to the Oldham Local Interest and Archive Centre. More recent information from after the amalgamation with Bury, Rochdale, Bolton and Salford were transferred to the University of Salford, Eccles campus. Telephone 0845 234 0184.
NB. This site is not connected in anyway to the School of Nursing at the University of Salford. Any enquiries about taking up nursing as a career etc should be be made directly to the University. Thankyou.
