Integrating evidence-based patient care validated by inquiry and research through collaboration with physician colleagues is the key tenet of the Department of Nursing at Montefiore-Einstein.

To truly achieve this, nurses at all levels have been continuously defining and refining our mission and core values. Their tremendous efforts supported the creation of our strategic plan, philosophy and professional practice model, all of which underscore how nursing contributes to Montefiore-Einstein’s mission and goals.
