Additional InformationI continue to provide direct patient care to women and their newborns in both my faculty role with 3rd year BScN students at GRH, and as a staff RN at a community hospital. I encourage learners to suspend judgment, reflect on experiences, think critically, and ask "why?" to encourage deeper understanding of self, others, and course content.
