KATEY AYERS was a 1967 graduate of Johns Hopkins Hospital Training School for Nurses. Katey passed away in February 2019, and left her entire estate to Johns Hopkins School of Nursing to create an endowed professorship in her name, representing her lifelong commitment to nursing education.
The funds for the Katey Ayers Endowed Chair were matched by the Maryland E-Nnovation Initiative Fund, which offers a state match to private funds raised in support of endowed professorships at Maryland’s colleges.
