History
BSMCON's history dates back to the formation of Richmond Memorial Hospital in 1957. Richmond Memorial Hospital School of Nursing opened in 1961 to serve as a source of nurses for the hospital. In 1993, a replacement hospital for Richmond Memorial was planned in collaboration with Bon Secours. The new hospital, Bon Secours Memorial Regional Medical Center, opened in 1998 and the school was renamed the Bon Secours Memorial School of Nursing.
In 2010, the school launched a four-year Bachelor of Science in nursing degree and became the Bon Secours Memorial College of Nursing.[1]
