in collaboration with the
J. Mark & Ann Claffey Baiada
Professorship in Nursing
& Home Health Care
LeAnn Thieman has over four decades of in-the-trenches nursing experience and 30 years assisting hospitals and organizations recruit and retain caregivers. In this presentation, LeAnn encourages, uplifts, and honors nurses, championing their daily contributions and sacrifices. By encouraging them to balance their lives, she offers nurses, their families, friends, and the community a "care plan" to care for themselves as they care for others.
Philadelphia General Hospital
During its 92 years of operation, the Philadelphia General Hospital Training School for Nurses graduated 6,000 professional nurses. Graduates wore the double frill cap, known as the Blockley Frill, which is an enduring symbol of the prestige and reputation of nurses who performed the art and science of nursing service and education. The last patient was discharged from Philadelphia General Hospital on June 16, 1977. Today, the Philadelphia General Hospital lives on at Neumann, in our School of Nursing and Health Sciences' Endowed Nursing Lecture Series.
