Visiting Assistant Professor at Colorado State University - Pueblo School of Nursing

Ìý

I am currently enrolled in the DNP-Population Health program at Colorado State University - Pueblo. I chose this program because, after Labor & Delivery, nursing education in the clinical setting is my passion. I wanted to further my education for the benefit of my nursing students. I have appreciated the Population Health emphasis of my DNP program because it has allowed me to focus on the health of the population of registered nurses. There has been no other time in history when the health and wellness of registered nurses hasÌýneeded more attention. I am currently in the data collection phase of my DNP project where I hope to learn more about increasing resilience among registered nurses working in the acute care setting.

Ìý

My DNP project seeks to provide mental health and resiliency support to registered nurses through the use of mindfulness tools while working at the hospital. Once I have completed my DNP degree, I will continue to be a passionate advocate for nursing students and registered nurses the world over. Registered Nurses advocate for their patients every day. It is time we support each other and advocate for the nursing profession and the physical, mental, and emotional health of all registered nurses. The health outcomes of our patients depend on our health and ability to serve.

Professional Conferences: An Opportunity to Network and Learn

Ìý

As a graduate nursing student, it can be very easy to get lost in just completing your coursework, meeting assignment deadlines, writing your dissertation, or working on your practice project. However, there are other ways for you to develop as a graduate nursing student through the professional development opportunities such as nursing conferences. Conferences provide you with the unique ability to network with graduate students from around the country, meet nursing leaders and experts, explore career opportunities after graduation, and reflect on your degree and possibilities for the future.

Ìý

In 2018 I had the opportunity to attend the GNSA Conference which allowed me to learn from nursing experts and take home important new knowledge that has carried me forward towards the completion of my PhD. I am excited to attend the 2022 GNSA Conference, which will take place on August 4-5, 2022 in Washington, DC. Not only do I look forward to the many sessions focused on furthering my nursing career, but I also look forward to meeting you and hope to see you there.

Be sure not to miss this important opportunity to connect with the wider graduate nursing community and use it as a stepping stone towards attending future nursing conferences.
