The Office of Global Nursing is the central point for coordinating and supporting international activities for Hopkins Nursing. We ensure that Hopkins nursing theory and practice benefits international communities (and vice versa) by: - Enriching the international education of Hopkins nursing students
- Lending support to international nursing research initiatives
- Encouraging nursing practice projects overseas
- Coordinating global outreach efforts such as disaster relief, teaching abroad and consulting
| | “We’re not just focusing on needs in other countries,” says Jane C. Shivnan, director of the Office of Global Nursing. “We also help our local immigrant communities, Hopkins nurses who want to volunteer overseas and international nurses who seek training and practice opportunities here.” |
The Office of Global Nursing is part of the Institute for Johns Hopkins Nursing, a cooperative partnership between the university’s School of Nursing and the hospital’s Department of Nursing. |
