Abstract:
A relationship begun in 1985 between the University of Pennsylvania School of Nursing and the Henrietta Szold Hadassah/Hebrew University has included a student exchange program and a faculty mentoring partnership. The student exchange focused on maternal-child nursing and led to the development of the faculty mentoring program. The goals of the latter program are to increase the expertise of the Israeli nursing faculty in the development of grant applications, publications, and abstracts and to develop a National Institutes of Health-supported research project with an Israeli nursing faculty as principal investigator.
