The USC Nursing Institute will offer training, tools and educational opportunities to about 4,000 employed nurses across Keck’s four hospitals and more than 100 clinics.

In its first year, the institute will focus on bolstering nurse-driven research. The system recently formed a new research council that will host Keck’s inaugural nursing symposium this summer, allowing nurses to showcase research and performance improvement work.

The institute will also offer certifications and specialty training, among other opportunities for nurses to advance their academic degrees.
