Healthcare for veterans drives new training program; University San Diego pilot site

In recognition of the dedication and sacrifice of the nation’s veterans, the Jonas Center for Nursing Excellence has established a program to improve the health of veterans, specifically those of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, by supporting doctoral-level nursing candidates who are committed to advancing veterans’ healthcare in areas from patient care to policy and administration. 

The Jonas Nursing Scholars Program for Veterans Health formally will launch in fall 2012 with $500,000 to start. The Jonas Center’s goal is to support 50 nursing scholars across the nation in 2012 and expand the program in the coming years.

The first PhD/DNP cohort includes five students from the University of San Diego Hahn School of Nursing, selected as the pilot site for the program. Each scholar will receive $10,000 from the Jonas Center to pursue research focused on veterans’ health needs identified by the White House and Veterans Administration.

“We are pleased and excited to partner with the Jonas Center on this important program,” said USD Dean Sally B. Hardin, RN, PhD, APRN, FAAN.

The Jonas Nursing Scholars Program for Veterans Health builds on the Jonas Nurse Leaders Scholar Program, an ongoing effort to address the nation’s continuing shortage of nursing faculty.
