Charles Ford reunites with UNE nursing alumni in Israel and Jordan

Charles W. Ford, Ph.D., professor of health sciences, recently returned from a two-week trip to Israel and Jordan where he and his wife Barbara served as co-hosts to travelers from five states.  

The Fords took the travelers to the many places that they visited during the 10 years (of spring semesters) that Ford taught in the UNE Israel Nursing program in Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, and Haifa.  

The Fords met with Israeli UNE alumni nurses who graduated in the late 1990s.
