Announcing the recipients of our 2024 Health Equity Leadership & Social Justice Award for Hispanic Heritage Month. After careful consideration and evaluation by our esteemed panel, selected individuals who have demonstrated outstanding dedication to improving our community, and excellence in their respective fields. Without further ado, please join us in congratulating the following recipients:

At Temple Health, we couldn’t be more grateful to those who have served our country, and we know how lucky we are to have so many veterans on our team. That’s why, on November 11th, we celebrated Veterans Day with cupcake giveaways across the Health System. It was a sweet (toothed) way to say, “Thank you for your service,” and to let our veterans know just how much they’re appreciated!

Dear Faculty, Staff and Students,  

We are pleased to announce that Christine Mount, MS, PA-C, has been appointed Assistant Dean for Adjunct Faculty, effective November 1, 2024. Christine will continue in her role as Director of the Physician Assistant Program, where she has led the program since 2017 with outstanding success, including earning full accreditation by the Accreditation Review Commission on Education for the Physician Assistant, Inc.  

Since joining Temple in 2016, Christine has been a key member of our faculty, and also currently serves as an Associate Professor of Biomedical Education and Data Science. Under her leadership, the PA program has flourished, preparing students to deliver compassionate, patient-centered care.

In her new role in the Office of Faculty Affairs, Christine will oversee the development and support of all adjunct faculty at Katz, fostering professional relationships, facilitating onboarding and ensuring compliance with relevant standards.
