Johns Hopkins Spreads Nursing Expertise Through Distance Learning

Wednesday, December 28, 2011 by Charles Fox
The Johns Hopkins Hospital is widely recognized for its nursing expertise, and they are utilizing innovative methods of sharing this expertise with the international nursing community. Video conferences for continuing education and webinars in places such as Abu Dabhi and Japan allow nurses all over the world to take advantage of what JHH has to offer. These programs were detailed recently in Johns Hopkins Nursing Magazine.

Regarding international nursing education initiatives, Jane Shivnan, MScN, RN, AOCN, explains “My experience has been that the work of nurses around the world, though impacted by different things, is fundamentally the same. We are all problem-solvers—that’s the nature of the job no matter what we’re doing. Nurses worldwide are trying to solve problems to provide better care. It’s a privilege to be able to be involved in that."

The College Network participates in and encourages distance education for nursing, and applauds JHH and the Institute for Johns Hopkins Nursing in their international and national nursing education efforts.
