Dr. Janice Nevin listed among 2019 ‘Top 25 Women in Health Care’
Christiana Care President and CEO Janice E. Nevin, M.D., MPH, was listed among Modern Healthcare magazine’s 2019 “Top 25 Women in Healthcare,” which honors female executives from different sectors of the health care industry.
Dr. Nevin was selected from a pool of hundreds of nominations of female health care leaders across the country. This recognition program honors the top women health care executives who are influencing health care policy and delivery models and supporting gender equity in leadership. A panel of judges and top editors at Modern Healthcare selected the honorees.
Under Dr. Nevin's leadership, Christiana Care is becoming more than a health system that delivers care: It is becoming a system that impacts health. Christiana Care partners with its caregivers, patients and neighbors to achieve personal health goals and create healthier communities.
Recognized for her commitment to the community, Dr. Nevin is making
a lasting impact on the health of Delawareans. In 2018, she received the Amethyst Ball Humanitarian Award from Limen House for her dedication to preventing addiction and supporting recovery and in 2017 she received Delaware’s Grassroots Champion Award from the American Hospital Association. She also was inducted into the Delaware Women’s Hall of Fame in 2017. 
Open heart, open mind, open communication
“Assume good intentions.” Drewry Nash Fennell, Esq., chief officer of Strategic Communication and Development, shared this Christiana Care Health System behavior among her top advice to local and emerging leaders at the 90 Ideas in 90 Minutes forum in January. Presented by the Delaware Business Times at The Queen in Wilmington,
90 in 90 brings together nine leaders to each share 10 of their best ideas to inspire the Delaware business community.
The speakers drew their 10 tips from their extensive experience as leaders in the government, athletics, non-profit and for-profit sectors. Fennell talked about positive ways to make change together with others —
“If you want someone to change their position, leave some room for them to move toward you.”
Listening actively and seeking to understand, she said, are keys to successful change. “Listening is the deepest form of respect,” she said. “If every voice is heard, the power of the group is amplified.”
“If every voice is heard, the power of the group is amplified.”
