Yale School of Nursing (YSN) gathered to celebrate the newest class of the Delta Mu chapter of the Sigma Theta Tau International Society of Nursing on May 19.
In her remarks, Dean Ann Kurth ’90 MSN, PhD, CNM, MPH, FAAN, briefly described three challenges facing the inductees: the climate crisis, the health workforce crisis, and the equity imperative. In part, her comments highlighted the trust communities place in their nurses.
“There is a reason that nurses are the most trusted profession for two decades running. It is because we care about our communities – because we are focused on understanding what makes people healthy or puts them at risk and are determined to address those issues. It is because our very definition of nursing requires us to be advocates,” Dean Kurth said.
