Smith Endowment Fund with generous support from Trustee Susan Glickman and the Emanuel and Anna Weinstein Foundation.

Annual Publications and Presentations Luncheon

The Annual Publications and Presentations Luncheon, recognizing staff who have published articles, presented at conferences, and mentored students will be held on Tuesday, May 18, 2010, 12:00 p.m. – 2:00 p.m. at the Manhattan Division in the Ben Barrack Auditorium.  This year we supervised a total of 2,428 students, including 399 college and university students, with the largest increase in CNAs in the Bronx (2,029 CNAs were trained).  This provides JHL with a larger hiring pool, additional hands to engage and care for residents, and enhances our reputation with both the students and the schools that use JHL, Bronx as a clinical training site.  Staff published 33 papers and did 38 presentations.
