"Because Mercy College already had the infrastructure in place and was so helpful in promoting the program, recruiting students, providing enrollment and navigation assistance to the students, it made the process so much easier."

— Stephanie Neumayer, RN, BSN, Clinical Educator


"St. Anthony has a strong interest in providing training, educational, and professional development opportunities to employees and members of the community. This program has helped to fulfil that mission, while also reaping staffing benefits for the organization. For example, two members of the cohort were preexisting St. Anthony employees looking for career advancement, while the other two members of the cohort were recruited to work at St. Anthony because of the program."

— Katie Towers, RN, BSN, Director, Education Services
