Q: Dr. Rembert, could you please tell us a little bit about yourself?


I am a true Philadelphian, born and cultivated in North Central Philadelphia.  My husband, I currently live in Palmyra Harbour, New Jersey. I love traditional art, jazz, football and classic movies. Our immediate family now consists of two beautiful daughters (2 sons-in-law) and the absolute medicine of my heart, my 3 grandchildren and Lady Boshia…our Maltese.

Q:  Can you tell us more about your background in healthcare?

While employed as a healthcare professional at The Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania (now Penn Medicine), I attended college at night. I obtained my undergraduate degree in Healthcare Administration at Beaver College in Glenside Pennsylvania.  I gained knowledge and insight of the importance of effective, efficient, and equitable health care delivery and that access to healthcare, quality, and accurate diagnostic findings is critical in delivering effective care to individuals. In 2000, I enhanced my professional skills at The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) as the Director of Radiology Informatics and Research Business Manager.  During my tenure at CHOP, while working full time, I accomplished a Master’s Degree in Healthcare Business, online.  And in pursuit of my academia goals, I recently completed a Doctoral Degree in Health Administration at the University of Phoenix.

Q: Why do you think Peirce’s Master’s in Healthcare Administration graduate degree will benefit students?

Our goal is to assists students in preparation for corporate healthcare leadership with the necessary skills to execute strategies for building effective, efficient, and safe administrative practices for quality healthcare delivery and services. My personal goal is to enable my students to leave their courses with an enhanced healthcare administration portfolio as well as personal branding tools to secure or maintain a position as a healthcare professional, graduate and ultimately doctorate student.
