Jefferson Celebrates National Nurses Week

 With National Nurses Week Upon us from May 6 to 12, it’s a ceremonial time to recognize the amazing things that those professionals bring to the healing world.

This episode of the Thomas Jefferson University News Podcast shares a story that starts with students interested in learning more about the profession and culminates with a look at a new initiative designed to further the education of those already in the field.

We start with a look at the College of Health Professions’ Introduction to Nursing course which serves as a launching pad for those interested in learning more about the profession, and as you will hear from students, the messages build quite a foundation.

From there, they can enter a rewarding field in which a lifelong learning mindset has recently been bolstered by the formation of a Nurse Leader Accelerator initiative.

With guidance from College of Nursing Dean Marie Ann Marino, Connelly Foundation Chief Nurse Executive Officer Kate Fitzpatrick and Senior Vice President/Chief Nursing Executive Annemarie Chavarria,  Jefferson created to provide a unique educational experience to advance their roles in the professional world.

While there are millions of stories from within the nursing world, consider this one bookended from the start of some would-be nurses’ journey into the heights they can achieve in the field.
