Dissertation
The Relationship between Reported Malpractice Cases for Nurse Practitioners and the Type of Supervision Mandated by State Law (2004)My Current Activities
I currently teach and have administrative responsibilities for the nurse practitioner program 50% of my time. I have a clinical practice in the faculty practice as a family nurse practitioner the other 50% of the time.
Short-term Plans for the Future
We are opening a BSN program at our institution within the next year. The plan is to open a graduate nursing program with both Masters and Doctoral programs in the next few years after the BSN program is in place.
Long term plans for the future
I would like to become the Director of Graduate Education or an Associate Dean for Graduate Education if I stay in an academic setting. I am also considering moving into public health as a Director of a Public Health Department.
