Personal StatementMy main focus is to provide a solid education for Adelphi’s Nursing students. My goal is to prepare nursing students to correlate theory to clinical practice, critically think and develop prioritization skills using the nursing process.
As an Adelphi Graduate, my passion has always been to educate nursing students so that they may exemplify the qualities and traits that I believe Adelphi has instilled in me. It is my goal to have hospitals seek Adelphi Nurses, fully prepared to deliver skillful care and be able to prioritize in this ever-changing environment. As a nurse, I deliver quality and compassionate care. As an educator, I strive to correlate theoretical knowledge and clinical competency so my students to deliver the same type of nursing care that I try to exemplify on a daily basis.
I feel that community service is an integral part of being a nurse and try to inspire my students to do the same. I encourage a “giving back” attitude and try to find projects to work on during the semester with my students.
In addition to my faculty position in the School of Nursing, I am also the Coordinator of Clinical and Community Affairs. This involves obtaining, securing, implementing and maintaining liaisons for over one hundred clinical rotations for the school of Nursing across Nassau County, Suffolk County and Manhattan.
