The statements
‘Those who enrol in our Master's degree courses in “Nursing and Midwifery Sciences” and in “Rehabilitation Sciences of the Health Professions” will be able to take advantage of a completely renewed course of study that meets the new needs of our healthcare system,’ commented Riccardo Zucchi, Rector of the University of Pisa. ‘This is a necessary intervention, particularly with regard to the training of future nurses who aspire to take on managerial functions. ‘The nursing manager of the future will have to be a highly-educated professional, who, in addition to advanced care skills, will also have to possess strong managerial, organisational, administrative and communication skills, so as to be able to manage and monitor the needs of citizens, coordinating the various services,’ added Zucchi. ‘It is from these considerations that the idea of creating a joint degree with the Scuola Sant'Anna was born: a collaboration to strengthen the “Pisa System”.
‘The Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna has been conducting research and training activities in the field of healthcare management for over 20 years,’ said Sabina Nuti, Rector of the Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna in Pisa. ‘In particular, over the last five years the School, with the Interdisciplinary Centre for Health Science and the MES Management and Healthcare Laboratory, has been studying in depth the organisational models of nursing as a key component for the evolution and sustainability of healthcare systems in the future. The teachers and researchers of the Scuola Sant'Anna are ready to contribute with their Unipi colleagues to this new educational challenge’.
