Birgitta Johansson Scholarship Fund

Name: Birgitta Johansson Scholarship Fund

Award Amount: $3,000

Information And Eligibility:
The Birgitta Johansson Scholarship Fund was established to support doctoral nurse anesthesia residents enrolled at the CAMC School of Nurse Anesthesia in Charleston, West Virginia. This scholarship honors the legacy of Mary “Betty” Ramey and reflects a commitment to advancing excellence in nurse anesthesia education through direct financial support for students pursuing the Doctor of Nurse Anesthesia Practice (DNAP).

Doctoral nurse anesthesia education is academically demanding, time-intensive, and financially challenging. Residents often balance rigorous clinical training schedules, advanced coursework, and professional responsibilities while managing significant educational expenses. The Birgitta Johansson Scholarship Fund helps ease this burden by providing targeted financial assistance to residents who are fully immersed in their doctoral training.

This scholarship is institution-specific and is awarded exclusively to residents attending the doctoral nurse anesthesia program at CAMC. By focusing support within a single program, the fund reinforces the strength and continuity of advanced nurse anesthesia education in West Virginia and supports the preparation of highly skilled CRNAs who will serve patients in a wide range of clinical settings.

• Supports doctoral nurse anesthesia residents at CAMC
• Designed to offset education and training-related expenses
• Honors the legacy of Mary “Betty” Ramey
• Strengthens advanced nurse anesthesia education in West Virginia

The Birgitta Johansson Scholarship Fund recognizes the dedication, resilience, and professional commitment required to complete a doctoral nurse anesthesia program. By providing financial support at a critical stage of training, the scholarship allows residents to remain focused on clinical excellence, patient safety, and academic achievement without unnecessary financial strain.

Scholarship recipients are typically selected from among eligible residents enrolled in the CAMC doctoral program who meet the fund’s criteria. While the award amount represents only a portion of the overall cost of doctoral education, it provides meaningful assistance and professional recognition during an intensive phase of nurse anesthesia training.
