In addition to teaching leadership and academic role development to master’s and doctoral students, I teach how to create a healthy work environment to encourage patient safety and nurse retention, and communication and teamwork in hospital settings. I also present topics in critical care nursing such as sleep, non-pharmacologic approaches to sedation and family presence.
