Piedmont Healthcare Funds Nursing Chair at Mercer University
Date:11/12/2007

Chair will help establish new Ph.D. program in Nurse Education at Mercer

ATLANTA, Nov. 12 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Piedmont Healthcare President and CEO R. Timothy Stack and Mercer University President William D.

Funded by Piedmont Healthcare by a $2.85 million grant to the Center for Health and Learning, a partnership of Piedmont Healthcare and Mercer University, the Chair will support the establishment of a Ph.D. program in nursing education at Mercer.

"The changing and complex nature of healthcare requires us to find innovative solutions for the future delivery of care as well as patient outcomes," said Stack. "We want to continue to bolster interest in the nursing profession, and this Ph.D. program is a natural enhancement to nursing education in general and the Piedmont Nursing Scholars program in particular."

"Mercer is extremely fortunate to be in partnership with Piedmont Healthcare as both institutions are committed to addressing the critical healthcare needs of this state by educating nurses," said President Underwood. "The Piedmont Healthcare Chair in Nursing is a tremendous gift to nursing education not only for Mercer, but also for the entire state.

A major factor contributing to that problem is the lack of nurse educators available to prepare nurses. This generous endowment from Piedmont Hospital will enable the college to attract faculty of the highest caliber to educate nurse educators, who, in turn, will prepare men and women for the nursing profession."
