Hero—a word used to define a person or character with supernatural powers. It’s one who demonstrates unique strengths and abilities and acts courageously. However, the embodiment of a hero has evolved, particularly during these extraordinary times. There’s so much more to the definition.

Acclaim traditionally follows acts of heroism—but yours is often unsung. You did not choose a nursing career for prestige or praise, but purpose. Your belief in humanity and the hope for healing is why you do it.
You chose Barnes-Jewish College Goldfarb School of Nursing to help cultivate this inspiration. Your selfless dedication to serve and make a difference fuels your commitment to our programs.
As a nurse leader, your calling is a huge responsibility. Some days will be tough, and some will be long – some will be both. Still, you show up every day – ready to learn, ready to care, ready to lead.
Thank you for being our HIT (Heroes in Training).
