Beth Israel Hospital —Hebrew for "House of Israel"— was founded on May 28, 1890. At a time when most of the city's hospitals would not treat newly-arrived immigrants, 40 immigrant Orthodox Jews opened a small clinic and emergency room at 206 Broadway. [4] The school was established in 1902 to train nurses for the nascent Beth Israel Hospital. As the demand for services at the hospital grew, the recruitment of nurses became a necessity. The school reflected a historical national movement toward nurses providing services at hospitals while they were in training.

After decades of expansions and acquisitions, in 2013 Beth Israel Medical Center joined the Mount Sinai Health System. Its nursing school — then known as Phillips School of Nursing at Mount Sinai Beth Israel — became Mount Sinai's sole nursing school. [5] [6]

Academics

Applications reportedly have a 67% acceptance rate and a 90% graduation rate. Nursing is the only major offered. [7] [8]

The school has a 15-month Accelerated Bachelor of Science in Nursing program (ABSN) for second-degree students and a 15-month Bachelor of Science Completion Program (RN-BS) for registered nurses. [9] Both programs are accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education. The school's Center for Continuing Education (CE) offers a variety of courses open to all nurses for CE credit as well as for professional development. graduate degree programs are also offered. The U.S. Department of Education reports a ratio of 8 students per faculty member. [10]

Facility

In 2020, the school moved to a new location at 148 East 126th Street between Lexington and Third Avenues, closer to the Mount Sinai Hospital and the Icahn School of Medicine. Designed by Danish architect Bjarke Ingels, the 35,000 square facility includes a multi-purpose auditorium and a state-of-the-art simulation center with hospital inpatient, primary care, home care, and operating room settings. [11] [12] In 2022, the school marked its 120th anniversary by inaugurating its newly-built location in East Harlem and changing its name to Mount Sinai Phillips School of Nursing. [3] [13] [14]
