I am particularly interested in how to help students and patients not merely survive, but to thrive, within their respective educational and health care current "NON" systems. I am interested in partnering, showing respect, and not using power-over techniques to allow students and/or patients to demonstrate their newly gained skills with growing independence under the educators/nurses watchful eyes...rather than when wait until they are "on their own". I am interested in nursing faculty workload research, civility and caring measures that promote healing/learning, and international collaborations. See the Sigma Theta Tau International Caring International Research Collaborative website for more INTERDISCIPLINARY sharing opportunities where "ego can be dropped at the door" and we can advance ALL variables in health care by sharing what we know to "get their faster together".
