Penn Nursing's Hartford Scholars
The John A. Hartford Foundation Awards Scholarships

The John A. Hartford Foundation Geriatric Nursing Scholarship program selected the following nurse scholars from the University of Pennsylvania for the Building Academic Geriatric Nursing Capacity Scholars Program (see also, http://www.geriatricnursing.org/scholars/), administered by the American Academy of Nursing (AAN). These nurse scholars were chosen in a national competition as part of a new Hartford Foundation initiative aimed at building academic geriatric nursing capacity.


In addition, MBA Scholars were selected since March 2002. These nurses wish to pursue a business degree, anticipating a career focus on the management/leadership of institutions serving the elderly.
The American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) was also awarded a $2 million grant from the John A. Hartford Foundation of New York to promote career opportunities in geriatric advanced practice nursing and improve the quality of care for older adults. Our School received funds for two scholarships per year. For more information on this scholarship opportunity, visit the AACN web site and click on Creating Careers in Geriatric Advanced Practice Nursing (http://www.aacn.nche.edu/Education/Hartford/creating.htm).
