UCF Breaks Ground on Dr. Phillips Nursing Pavilion That Will Help Address Critical Shortage, Strengthen Patient Care. With the turning of ceremonial dirt, University of Central Florida students, donors and administrators celebrated breaking ground on the transformational Dr. Phillips Nursing Pavilion – a state-of-the-art building that will strengthen patient care by enabling UCF to graduate 150 more highly qualified, compassionate nurses each year.
Made possible by support from the State of Florida and many generous donors deeply invested in the future of nursing, the community and the state, the groundbreaking ceremony marked a major milestone demonstrating the potential that can be unleashed with the power of philanthropy when many key stakeholders join together to tackle one of the community’s greatest challenges.
“A building is space where you’re able to do what you need to do. For the UCF College of Nursing, it will be a venue where great thinkers live, future nurses learn, and innovators and scholars work together to solve our world’s most pressing healthcare problems,” said Dean Mary Lou Sole. “In this building, the Dr. Phillips Nursing Pavilion, UCF will unleash potential that will have an immeasurable impact for generations to come.”
