This is the fourth episode of Inspiring Careers in Nursing, the podcast where we hear from Villanova Nursing Alumni about the different career paths they have taken to inform and inspire listeners. 

In this episode, Maryalice Morro interviewed Tyonne Hinson. As Director of Nursing Diversity Initiatives and the Nursing Career Lattice Program at Boston Children’s Hospital, Dr. Hinson leads and directs enterprise level initiatives to strengthen the recruitment, retention, advancement and inclusion of all members of the nursing workforce as a platform to promote health equity and reduce child health disparities. She also contributes to a broad range of nursing and patient care-focused diversity, inclusion, and health equity activities.

Prior to joining Boston Children’s, she was previously with Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia in a senior nursing role directing neonatal nursing practice, leading international-global health nursing initiatives, and partnering with several leaders to create a wide range of clinical and EDI-focused strategies to build nursing and the clinically focused workforce. 

With over 20 years of experience in nursing, Dr. Hinson blends a strong background in executive nursing leadership, neonatal intensive care and maternal-fetal health, international, public and global health, as well as health equity and cross-cultural competencies.

Dr. Hinson holds a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) degree with a focus in Healthcare Administration from Villanova University, as well as a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) degree from Syracuse University, and a Doctor of Public Health (DrPH) degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. She also holds Nurse Executive Board Certification (NE-BC) from the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC).
