CEO Welcome Message
Anita L.A. Jenkins, MBA, RCP, FABC
President
Welcome to Howard University Hospital (HUH), where our nurses are the lifeblood of our organization. They not only care and advocate for our patients but also for our patient's family and friends. Their role here at HUH is a critical component to our overall operations.
The compassion, empathy, selflessness, and resilience that nurses exhibit make them the unsung heroes of healthcare. Their impact extends far beyond the clinical setting, as they provide solace, comfort, and hope to those in need.
rewarding experience that allows you the ability to interact one-on-one with patients while they are sick, and working to heal them can be an incredibly rewarding experience. Patients and nurses often create a more trusting bond than patients and their doctors because of the amount of time nurses spend with patients.
Nursing is where compassion and vulnerability come together to offer high quality care and comfort to patients and families during the most vulnerable times in their lives. I am always amazed by your commitment to excellence and your dedication.
Our future at HUH is brighter than ever because of our nurses who show patients the utmost love, respect, compassion and care on a daily basis. Where ever you are in your journey, your decision to fulfill a career in the nursing profession is admirable. Whatever career path you choose, I encourage you to consider Howard University Hospital.
