Let's volley! The St. Luke's Allentown Nursing Excellence Committee was thrilled to provide Raub Middle School students and staff with the resources to learn the game of pickleball, and funded new equipment so students can play after school. Some of our leaders from the Allentown campus went head-to-head with Raub administrators, teachers and students on May 14 for a pickleball fundraiser to support their 8th grade formal dance. #StLukesProud #pickleball #BetterTogether #AllinForAllentown

For medical students, the hooding ceremony is a unique recognition of the culmination of years of hard work and the transition to medical practitioner; the placement of the graduation hood symbolizes the academic journey through earning multiple degrees over the course of eight or more years. For the Temple/St. Luke’s School of Medicine Class of 2024, their graduation May 10 in Philadelphia was a special rite of passage that included meaningful moments with peers, faculty, and family.

Congratulations to Chief Graduate Medical Education Officer, J.P. Orlando, Ed.D., who received the Benigna Education Award at this year’s Moravian University Shining Lights ceremony for his academic and medical education work. In addition to receiving the award, Orlando, a ’96 Moravian graduate, was a guest on the Moravian University Houndcast, where he discussed his ten-year career at St. Luke’s and how he views and defines success. “What helps me to get a better understanding has been volunteering and participating on boards throughout my career. To understand the trends that are happening, and then to take that knowledge locally… being part of that is really rewarding,” Orlando told the podcast’s hosts. “To me, success is seeing teams grow, organizations grow, and people grow as they realize their full potential.” Learn more: https://lnkd.in/eRDHWCAj 📸: Photo courtesy of Moravian University #StLukesProud

We are #StLukesProud to have created the region’s only accredited radiology residency programs in order to meet the nationwide shortage of radiologists. "The Network is committed to education and providing health services to the community," said Pallav Shah, MD, program director of the Diagnostic Radiology Residency. The residency programs are the result of a long-term plan and investment that will ultimately benefit the community. Our hope is that the residents will stay once they train here, especially since they will learn how we do things and what we consider the best practices. We hope they will join our team and work in our community." Learn more: https://lnkd.in/en62fJws #Radiology
