The Frances Payne Bolton School of Nursing is the nursing school of Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, OH. The school is named in honor of Frances Payne Bolton, a former congresswoman from Cleveland's 22nd District.[2]

History

Originally known as the Lakeside Hospital Training School for Nursing, the school was founded in 1898. Kate Benedict Hanna Harvey (1871-1936), an heiress to the M. A. Hanna Company fortune and philanthropist, spearheaded its establishment.[3] In honor and after endowment by Frances Payne Bolton, the school was renamed in 1935 to the Frances Payne Bolton School of Nursing.[1]

Case Western Reserve created the world's first applied doctorate of nursing in 1979.[4]

In 2019, the main offices were relocated into the Health Education Campus's Samson Pavilion, on the campus of Cleveland Clinic.[5]
