New York City-based NYU Langone Health has opened its Lerner Holistic Integrative Health Nursing Fellowship to nurses nationwide, expanding a program previously limited to its own workforce.
The fellowship supports nurses in identifying care gaps and piloting wellness-based interventions aimed at improving patient outcomes and strengthening nursing leadership. Participants also receive training in integrative health techniques, including breathing exercises, aromatherapy and meditation.
Since the program’s launch three years ago, projects developed by fellows have reached nearly 4,000 patients, caregivers and staff, according to a Jan. 27 news release. Past initiatives include a wellness guide for surgical patients and a training program to support healthcare workers caring for patients at the end of life.
The 2026 cohort includes collaborative group projects focused on health equity, end-of-life care and integrative health research.
At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
