In 2014, Dr. Janice Nevin became the first female CEO for ChristianaCare, Delaware’s largest health care system and nonprofit employer. She served as a faculty member and the residency director for family and community medicine at Jefferson Medical College in Philadelphia up until ChristianaCare literally came calling in 2002. As the leader of ChristianaCare, Nevin has helped foster growth with the health care system, acquiring two hospitals in Maryland and Pennsylvania as well as opening several new practices in southern Delaware and Pennsylvania. Under her watch, ChristianaCare has innovated in new spaces with the Gene Editing Institute, launching the spin-off company CorriXR Therapeutics and breaking ground with its center for virtual health.
