Foundational to its mission as a Harvard-affiliated teaching hospital, Dana-Farber is dedicated to educating future health care professionals. This is exemplified by the Nursing Department’s academic partnership program, which places dozens of nurse practitioner students with clinical preceptors each semester. In May 2018, this effort was extended to 22 high school students from Rhode Island Nurses Institute Middle College (RINIMC), who visited Dana-Farber for a full day. The mission of RINIMC is to prepare a diverse group of students to become a highly educated and professional nursing workforce of the future. The visit was coordinated by Colleen McLaughlin, BBA, program coordinator of the Center for Clinical and Professional Development. As part of their visit, students met with clinic assistants, nurse practitioners, research nurses, and Senior Vice President for Patient Care Services and Chief Nursing Officer Anne H. Gross, PhD, RN, NEA-BC, FAAN. Each shared their perspectives and discussed the unique paths that led them to careers in nursing and patient care services. Members of the Patient and Family Advisory Councils also shared their experience of being patients and caregivers.
