Nursing Excellence & Innovation

Graduate Medical Education 

Commonly referred to as a residency, the GME program at Mercy Health provides additional training for physicians after medical school, allowing them to specialize and practice independently. Donations for GME help increase training programs and specialty fellowships, along with providing equipment and facility upgrades needed to accept more physicians into the program. Donations can even establish endowments and scholarships for program participants.

By recruiting future doctors to Cincinnati for their residency, Mercy Health is helping to prevent a physician shortage that would reduce health care resources in this area. And thanks to donations, our GME program has expanded to include specialty training in family medicine and emergency care, two areas of great need in the Tri-State area.

Clinical Pastoral Education

CPE is a special program at The Jewish Hospital - Mercy Health that trains people to become hospital chaplains. Chaplains of all faiths are important for holistic care of a person's entire being–mind, body and spirit. They provide spiritual and emotional support for patients and families by offering a space for true listening and reflection. Chaplains help people discuss difficult topics like:

  • Spiritual distress or disconnection
  • Death and dying
  • Mental or emotional health
  • Dealing with change or loss

With a national shortage of credentialed chaplains, Mercy Health needs help from donors like you to continue the CPE program in Cincinnati. Donations for Clinical Pastoral Education will allow more cohorts of future chaplains to be trained. Your giving will keep faith traditions and spirituality at the heart of compassionate care for everyone who turns to Mercy Health.
