The Science of Nurses Caring for Nurses
Some thirty years ago, when Elaine Walsh worked as a nurse in inpatient psychiatry, one of her very ill patients haunted her. She’d awaken at night startled and troubled. Even today, she still wonders what exactly was going on with this very complex patient. At the time, there wasn’t anywhere at work for her to turn to for support. It never even crossed her mind that a formalized support system could help her process the situation, contribute to her own well-being, and improve her ability to care for other patients.

Congratulations to our 2021-2022 Clinical Preceptors of the Year
Educating a nurse requires not only classroom instruction, but also clinical experience. For the latter, a nurse-in-training is overseen by an experienced nurse—a preceptor. Preceptors do much more than provide clinical guidance. Both directly and indirectly, they help nurses understand how to be effective, efficient, and compassionate providers of care. They are a vital link…

2019 Clinical Preceptors of the Year

One of the most vital elements in…
