“I am humbled and grateful for the opportunity to lead and serve the Frances M. Maguire School of Nursing and Health Professions. I look forward to the shared vision that will prepare distinctive GMercyU graduates to address the healthcare needs of today and the future,” said Dr. Tang.

Dr. Tang is joining the Gwynedd Mercy University community at an exciting time marked by new initiatives to enhance the student experience, including numerous campus transformations. The new Frances M. Maguire Healthcare Innovation Center and Campus, set to open in 2025, will provide students with access to state-of-the-market technology and enhanced opportunities to work in interprofessional teams. Nursing students will collaborate with respiratory care, public health, psychology, social work, occupational therapy and students in other majors to learn how to provide holistic patient care, a best practice in healthcare.
