of Philadelphia Endowment
Supporting Future Nurses in Philadelphia and Beyond
The Alumni Association of the Former Albert Einstein Medical Center Nursing School of Philadelphia is rooted in a history of healthcare excellence. The school opened its doors in 1952, shortly after the Albert Einstein Medical Center was established through the merger of The Jewish Hospital in northeast Philadelphia and Mt. Sinai Hospital in central Philadelphia.
The school offered students a three-year degree program, with most students drawn from nearby areas. The medical center relied heavily on its nursing school graduates to fill employment positions up until the school graduated its last class of students and ceased operations in 1987. Through the ensuing years, the medical center that established the school continued to grow in scope and, in 2021, joined with Jefferson Health.
Today, the Alumni Association of the Former Albert Einstein Medical Center Nursing School of Philadelphia Endowment upholds a commitment to nursing education and supports the educational goals of exceptional and dedicated nursing students.
