Since the Miller School of Medicine admitted its first class of medical students in 1952, it has trained generations of physicians and researchers to enhance the health and well-being of South Florida and beyond. Ever Brighter: The University of Miami’s Campaign for Our Next Century took that work to another level.With almost $1.5 billion raised for the Miller School and UHealth – University of Miami Health System — more than half of the campaign’s nearly $2.7 billion total — donors nearly doubled UM’s endowment, expanded scholarships and powered groundbreaking research across fields from neurology to oncology.Here’s a look at some of what Ever Brighter accomplished:

Confetti and cheers filled conference rooms throughout UHealth – University of Miami Health System facilities on Aug. 25, as leadership, faculty and staff learned via Zoom that UHealth had received the coveted Magnet designation from the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC).Magnet designation, the gold standard of nursing excellence, is a rigorous, voluntary credential pursued by and awarded to health care organizations deeply committed to delivering exceptional patient care, fostering innovation and advancing professional nursing practice.But the news got better: the ANCC representative on the screens told the assembled providers that UHealth had received the even-higher Magnet with Distinction designation, making it one of fewer than 1% of health systems — and the first health system in Florida — to receive the elite honor, which acknowledges health care organizations that demonstrate the absolute highest standards of nursing excellence, patient outcomes and innovation.
“This is an historic achievement, something we can all celebrate, as it signals our clinical excellence and institutional strength.”
