Registered Nursing Diploma

Aberdeen Hospital School of Nursing

I lived in a female-only residence here and some great memories happened at the good ol' Aberdeen. I proudly wore my black band, prior to caps being cast aside in the early eighties. My mother and my youngest sister are also alum.

Bachelor of Nursing Degree

Dalhousie University School of Nursing

~

Master of Arts (Health Ed and Promotion)

Dalhousie University Faculty of Recreation, Physical Education, and Kinesiology

Because every student should experience university life in Halifax at least once. I did it thrice and Halifax is still one of my favorite cities.

Doctorate of Philosophy in Nursing

University of Alberta Faculty of Nursing

I have a curious mind--particularly about how we make decisions in health care and how they do (or don't) help patients and clients. I'm still curious about that.

MFA Creative Nonfiction

University of Kings College at Dalhousie University 

I just can't get enough of school. I wanted to be a better writer and write for the general public in a more accessible manner than most academics do. When I saw this low-residency MFA program at Kings I knew it was exactly what I was looking for!

Through my well funded research program at the University of Alberta I published as an author or co-author in high impact scholarly journals such as Medical Decision Making, Social Care in the Community, International Journal of Nursing Studies, and Advances in Nursing Science to name a few. 


More enjoyment comes from community engagement, work shopping, and writing in venues accessible to all like this link to Healthy Debate where I talk about how we might improve urgent care for older people.

As  a nurse I spent my career in community and home care. I have come to  see the first hand value of a strong home care system to support family caregivers–the main caregivers when loved ones need care. I have had a rich nursing career and am blessed to have loved all of my experiences including practice, administration, nursing entrepreneurship, teaching, and research.   


An inherent leader and entrepreneur, I get my greatest joy from helping others learn new things, apply new skills, and achieve their goals. I advocate for better home care and more support for family caregivers. 


Currently, I am a volunteer board member with Caregivers Alberta and the Writers Guild of Alberta. I am on the editorial board of Yoga Bridge, a quarterly publication by the Yoga Association of Alberta.


I am a peer reviewer for several scholarly journals related to my areas of expertise.
