ENRICH Director: Mary Dolansky, Student: Mino Chough, Chester Nguyen, Paula Ryu, and Dori Nurzynski

Enhancing Career Horizons

The CWRU School of Nursing ENRICH Fellowship provides an opportunity for pre-licensure nursing students to experience primary care services. During a paid work experience with inter professional primary care staff/mentors, students explore future career opportunities, and employers network with and mentor talented and highly skilled students, further developing the talent pipeline for primary care.
