Susan Moscato
Professor of Nursing

Was a Navy nurse during the Vietnam War, working with amputees mere hours from battle. Became, understandably, a specialist in rehabilitation. Has been the University’s dean of nursing. Co-founded a Hispanic health care program now used by the Providence Health System. Founded the University’s parish nursing program. Has taught everything and then some. Now teaches “the alpha and omega of nursing courses,” intros for brand-new students and leadership for those about to graduate. “I try to teach my students to find what's best in themselves, to focus their passions, to wield the tools of the profession, to see nursing not as job or occupation but profession — maybe even vocation.”
