Welcome to the University of Pennsylvania School of Nursing!
At the start of this fall semester, I welcome you—not just to the hustle of a new semester, but to a renewed chance to be part of our vibrant Penn Nursing community. We talk a lot about what we want our culture to be at the School, and for me the thing that makes the biggest difference is being deliberate about connecting with people. We need to understand how connecting reinforces our community and our health—and wards off isolation that can lead to loneliness.
It’s a wrap for the first cohort of the Nurse Innovation Fellowship Program by Johnson & Johnson, powered by Penn Nursing and The Wharton School. Over the past 12 months, ten teams of two senior nurse leaders from healthcare systems from across the country had the opportunity to focus on a problem unique to their healthcare system.
