Nursing
Education 2.0 February 20, 2023 -- Today I sat down with Sharon Goldfarb, DNP, RN, FNP-BC. We talked about nursing education, its shortcomings, and visions for improvement. Until recently the Dean of Health Sciences at the College of Marin, Sharon is now an advisor at HealthImpact, the California Nursing and Policy center headed by Dr. Garrett Chan, which runs the Benner Institute for Teaching and Learning at my alma mater UCSF. It is a California State-funded nursing workforce development organization, billing itself as a "Revolutionary Solution to Remake Nursing Education and Support Professional Development for Nursing Educators". Sharon and I agreed that a revolutionary solution is sorely needed! Go enlightened nursing educators! Go Sharon! |
