the Decker School of Nursing and in the local and state health
care community. The mission of the Kresge Center is to support
scientific inquiry and expand the knowledge base of nursing
and health care.
The accomplishments of the Center for
Nursing Research of the Decker School of Nursing garnered

and generously endowed the Decker School of Nursing, Roger
L. and Mary F. Kresge Center for Nursing Research.
