Dean White further strengthened the school’s relationship with Mass General Hospital to enhance clinical placements, provide scholarships, and expand the number of SON graduates joining the Mass General clinical family across the hospital’s many care units. Under his leadership, the school also designed an innovative pilot program to prepare nurses for the Martha’s Vineyard Hospital, a rurally located member of the Mass General Brigham health system. He also advanced a healthy community initiative committed to justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion. In 2023, the National League for Nursing named the IHP School of Nursing a Center of Excellence in Nursing Education.The next Dean of Nursing is positioned to build on prior successes and develop an aspirational vision for the school and support the IHP’s latest strategic plan https://www.mghihp.edu/about/mission-vision/strategic-plan-priorities. In particular, a new leader would have the opportunity to:        Develop a vision for the future of nursing education and research and implement a plan for achieving it.        Demonstrate commitment to advancing justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion (JEDI) initiatives including the recruitment of faculty and staff members from minoritized groups and mutually beneficial relationships with community organizations.        Strengthen academic-clinical partnerships to expand the quality and quantity of experiential placements for learners.        Promote community and wellbeing among faculty and staff and advocate for sufficient resources for them to fulfill their responsibilities.        Leverage interprofessional collaboration to reduce silos and increase efficiency.        Nurture nursing research, catalyze research teams, and provide professional development for all faculty members.        Diversify revenue sources through enrollment management, philanthropic giving, and/or external grants. BostonThe IHP campus occupies 180,000 square feet across seven buildings in the historic Charlestown Navy Yard, set along the beautiful Charlestown waterfront and overlooking downtown Boston, Massachusetts. Boston is a nexus for higher education, healthcare, and technology industries, boasting three dozen colleges and universities and twelve teaching hospitals within its metropolitan area. For the last two years, WalletHub, a personal finance publication, has ranked Massachusetts first among all 50 states in key indicators of livability. Conde Nast Traveler recently ranked Boston as one of the world’s top 30 greatest cities and the 6th best big city to live in the United States.   Mass General BrighamThe IHP proudly continues the legacy of the Boston Training School for Nurses, founded in 1873 at Mass General Hospital. By the time of the IHP’s founding in 1977, the training school was the oldest continuously operating diploma nursing school in the United States. When Mass General Hospital formed a partnership with a cross-town academic health center, Brigham and Women’s Hospital, the IHP became the sole degree-granting entity in an integrated healthcare system. The system has since expanded to include Spaulding Rehabilitation Network, numerous community hospitals, a health insurance plan, home healthcare services, diagnostic centers, community practices, and more. Now named after its founding institutions and home to 80,000 employees, the Mass General Brigham system is the largest private employer in Massachusetts. Mass General Brigham is also the largest hospital system-based research enterprise in America with an annual research budget of $2.5 billion. The School of Nursing’s position within this leading health system affords unparalleled opportunities for academic-practice partnerships, research collaborations, and workforce development initiatives. Massachusetts General Hospital As the IHP’s founder, Mass General Hospital (MGH) provides an exemplary environment for cutting-edge teaching and research along with numerous opportunities to serve and create value for the local and regional communities that our institution serves.

The plan seeks to create a supportive and inclusive campus environment and better support the diverse communities the school serves. This initiative complements a commitment from MGB to stand “United Against Racism,” which holds leadership accountable for mitigating the harms of racism in patient care, workplace culture, and community health.  School of NursingThe Dean of Nursing provides strategic, academic, and administrative leadership for the faculty, staff, and students within the School of Nursing.

Faculty within the school currently hold over $10 million in federal training grants. These projects are advancing critical shortages and skills gaps within the healthcare workforce while expanding care for vulnerable populations. In the HRSA-funded Integrated Healthcare Partnership: Bridging the Behavioral Health Gap grant project, the team has developed longitudinal immersive, team-based clinical experiences for graduate psychiatric nurse practitioner students, who provide care for vulnerable, high need populations in underserved communities in the greater Boston area. In the HRSA-funded Impacting Health in Partnership: Nurses on the Move Towards Health Equity and Climate Justice project, nursing faculty lead interprofessional mobile health services to mitigate health-related consequences of COVID-19, climate change, and environmental health inequities within marginalized populations. In 2023, SON received nearly $6 million from the U.S. Department of Labor to train nurse educators and help address national nursing shortages, making it the only educational institution in New England funded to build up and diversify the nation’s nursing pipeline. In this project, more than 220 nurse educators will be trained within the MGB healthcare system and across other academic and healthcare partner institutions within the region. Nursing faculty members also received over $1 million from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts to train 140 nurses over two years to provide in-home care for children and adults who require intensive, continuous skilled nursing support in order to remain at home. Community engagementThe IHP’s IMPACT Practice Center, clinical education and pro bono center on campus, houses the Ruth Sleeper Nursing Center for Clinical Education and Wellness. The Nursing Center is a nurse-led screening, referral, education, and support resource for Charlestown and Greater Boston-area residents. Free support services are provided by MGH Institute nurse practitioner students under the supervision of licensed nursing faculty.
