Message from the Dean

I

t’s been an inspiring year at the College of Nursing & Health Innovation. We have much to be grateful for and so much to share with you in this issue of Innovations in Nursing & Health. Some of the major themes in this edition are learner-centeredness, interprofessionalism and social embeddedness. Our highest priority – preparing students to impact health in positive ways, teaching them how to be lifelong, triumphant learners, and preparing them to be successful wherever their journeys take them, is what guides us every day. Everything we do, from every corner of our college, is centered on our students. Our inspirational faculty, staff and community partners demonstrate daily that they are focused on creating a community of health and wellness through teaching, research, community collaborations, and especially their dedication to students. The S.H.O.W. Clinic (Student Health Outreach for Wellness) is an example of learner-focus, interprofessionalism and social embeddedness. The opening of this student-run clinic (Arizona’s first!) in October will be a wonderful addition to our local community and a great interprofessional learning lab for our students. Be sure to read about S.H.O.W. in this issue. Interprofessionalism happens every day in a variety of different ways and places across our college. This is important work for our students, our faculty, our communities and the future of health care. Our new Interprofessional Education (IPE) website (https://ipe.asu.edu) showcases the stories of ASU’s IPE initiatives and innovations--and the partnerships that make them happen. Visit our new website, get to know our champions, learn about our programs, and reach out to us with your stories of collaboration – we’d love to hear from you. Social embeddedness is a value we share with our colleagues across the university. In April, we were privileged to sponsor and participate in HopeFest, an annual event that provides essential health care services to the uninsured. Our spring employee community outreach program – “A day of Social oUtreach,” gave us the chance to join with our colleagues to serve the homeless in our community. Also this spring, CONHI students began providing health screenings to Fresh Express patrons as the bus travels to underserved areas of our community known as ‘food deserts’ selling fresh produce. I am proud to share another example of social embeddedness. The College of Nursing & Health Innovation and our partners at Scottsdale Community College and

the Arizona State Board of Nursing were awarded the ASU President’s Medal for Social Embeddedness for a project they developed to ensure patient safety through nursing performance assessment. This prestigious award is presented to teams that have worked collaboratively to implement a solution for a community need. In other updates, I am pleased to welcome back Dr. Craig Thatcher who joined us in May as our senior associate dean and professor. A strong advocate of interprofessionalism, Dr. Thatcher was on the team that secured a Macy Foundation grant to benefit programs at CONHI and the University of Arizona Phoenix campus. He was instrumental in developing several degree programs that are offered today at CONHI and the College of Health Solutions. Dr. Thatcher will oversee CONHI’s recruiting and student services initiatives as well as our Community Engagement for Health group. Health care is a high-demand industry with high expectations for providers. Our programs are designed to prepare students to meet the needs of an industry in the midst of great change. We work closely with our community partners—through our Community Partners Forum and our new Health Advisory Board, to ensure that our curriculum remains rigorous while adapting to and anticipating the changing needs of the industry. Our recent successful self-study process gave us an opportunity to shine a light on our strengths. I am pleased to share that we met all standards and were granted a full 10-year accreditation by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE). We believe it takes an “interprofessional village” to make a difference to students, patients and communities. The stories in this issue of Innovations in Nursing & Health will show you how we strive to live the core values of our college as we honor our students and those who prepare them to be successful on their health care journey. Warmly,

Teri Pipe, PhD, RN Dean, College of Nursing & Health Innovation

ASU Nursing Professor’s Research Translates to Supportive Relationships and Improved Health Habits

O

n a beautiful spring morning in Chandler, Arizona, members of the Chandler Family Learning Center’s new walking group came prepared to hit the road with their new friends. Maricela Santana, the center’s coordinator, gathered her group of walkers and headed outside for a quick stretch. “Let’s go to the usual spot,” Santana called out. “The stretches make our muscles more flexible.” The Family Learning Center is a recent addition to the Chandler Family Health Center, a Maricopa Integrated Health System (MIHS) outpatient clinic. Santana wanted to start a walking group but did not have the funding for the program, so they called on their colleague, Dean Conrood of the MIHS, co-investigator of Colleen Keller’s Madres para la Salud study, to ask if the center could use Keller’s curriculum to create the program. Developed for a National Institutes of Health grant, and then translated to a First Things First grant, Madres para la Salud (Mothers for Health) set out to learn whether support and encouragement would help women make positive changes in their health, and if walking in a group would increase physical activity, health benefits and weight loss, and decrease postpartum depression. With curriculum in hand, Santana started her walking group in March. “The relationships that are developed among the walkers make this group effective,” Santana said. “You are walking with other people and you can relate to others who are also trying to get healthier.”

Conducting use-inspired research is one of ASU’s design aspirations. Seeing her research translated is a special treat for Keller, a Regents Professor and faculty researcher for ASU’s College of Nursing & Health Innovation. “Translated research in a community setting reaffirms for our research team that our approach has relevance for our participants,” Keller said. “Working with participants across wide age ranges, we have shown that interventions are most effective if we focus on a culture-based perspective, and explicit social and behavioral changes that occur during milestone developmental transitions, such as childbirth, menopause and other life transitions.” After the stretch, Santana’s group headed to Folley Park where they walked at their own pace. “Is thirty minutes okay?” she asked her walkers. Along the way, Santana provided nutrition and health information, advice and encouragement. There was much talking, laughing and learning. “It’s my first time,” said Nayeli Baret, who brought her 5 month old son, Eli, with her that morning, pushing him along in his stroller as she walked.

nutritionist who helped him change his diet. In April he joined Santana’s walking group. “It’s motivational to walk with the group,” he said. “I usually walk by myself, but you tend to cheat when you’re by yourself. At home, I might go to the corner and stop.”

Santana’s group, which meets every Wednesday, began walking for 15 minutes, increased to 20 minutes, and now The number one walks for 30 minutes. “We lesson for the walkers, increase by 5 minutes every according to Santana, is The relationships that are developed among week,” she said. Santana tracking daily progress. also encourages participants the walkers make this group effective. to walk on their own time in “How many blocks have between group meetings. we gone?” she asked. “How many songs?” Guardado responded, referring to his “I encourage once a day for at least 30 minutes,” she said. headphones. “They can break it down if needed to 15 minutes twice a day.”

Tonya Akinyoyenu has been with the walking group since its inception. Originally from Nigeria, she has been in Arizona for five years. Although she tried to walk several times alone, she found it difficult to stay committed. Walking with a group has been beneficial and helps her with her goal of losing weight. “It keeps me healthy, walking together with a group is motivating, and it encourages us to get to know each other, to network, and establish relationships,” she said. “I look forward to it every Wednesday.” This is Carol Lopes’ second time walking with the group. An avid walker, Lopes, 75, walks to the center from her home nearby. She enjoys the group because of the social component. “You have people to walk with,” she said. “As long as I can, I will keep coming.” Two years ago, Dario Guardado had a stroke. At 400 pounds and diabetic, he knew he needed to do something to take back his health, so he started walking. His sister, who works at the center, encouraged him to take advantage of the center’s resources. He met with their diabetic educator and

When Santana learned Guardado was diabetic, she took him to the clinic’s nutrition library and made copies of diabetic recipes for him. “It opened my eyes,” he said. “Now I eat a lot of vegetables, and I learned to eat a lot of salads. Once you’re educated, you’re able to make better decisions.” Santana enjoys meeting new walkers and hearing their stories. “Every walker usually discloses why they are there and I love to hear each of their stories,” she said. “I love to see how I can provide any kind of assistance to them to reach their goals.” Like his new friends, Guardado’s personal goal is to make walking a habit, and with Santana’s program, it will be easy because he enjoys it. “When we’re with people, it doesn’t feel like work because we’re having fun.” Keller C, et al, Madres para la Salud: Design of a theory-based intervention for postpartum Latinas, Contemp Clin Trials (2011): http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.cct.2011.01.003

ASU Grad Calls Upon Life Experience

and Native American Traditions as Hospice Nurse

R

ichard Montague has worn many professional hats in his first 46 years: Arabic interpreter, casino marketing manager, medical research specialist, floor nurse, hospice administrator and teacher, to name just a few. So when he earned his Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree in May from ASU’s College of Nursing & Health Innovation, it was fitting that he donned another hat – a mortarboard and tassel decorated with Quechan (Yuma) Indian beadwork from his tribe. After the ceremony, Montague donated the cap to the Heard Museum of Native Cultures and Art in Phoenix. Montague grew up in a traditional Native American family on the Fort Yuma Indian Reservation in Yuma, Arizona. He joined the army after high school and went to the Defense Language Institute to become an interpreter. When he was discharged from the army, he returned to Yuma to help his tribe develop a casino project. While working on the casino endeavor, Montague’s mother suffered a lengthy chronic illness. “She had liver and kidney issues, and dealing with the health care system and specifically Indian Health Services got me thinking about larger issues in our community,” he said. Initially, Montague wanted to pursue a career in medicine, but ultimately decided on nursing. He enrolled at Arizona Western College in Yuma and graduated with an associate degree in Nursing, and then attended Cornell University where he earned a bachelor’s degree in Human Development with a Native American Studies minor. After that, he earned a research certificate from Harvard University’s School of Medicine. During that time, Montague worked in various health care settings, but discovered he had a passion for hospice nursing. “It was not until I had the profound personal experience of providing bedside end-of-life care for my mother that I found hospice as a career,” he said. “As a family involved with hospice, we had a tremendous knowledge deficit (that) our rural hospice did not address adequately. I made it a personal goal to ensure that I was clinically sound in palliative care and later, that our clinicians have the access to all the educational tools that are available to assist the families in need.” Since then, Montague has worked in many capacities at hospices in Arizona. He started as a case manager providing hospice care to patients in their homes, as an admissions nurse conducting evaluations and reviewing hospice benefits

with patients, and as chief administrative officer and director of clinical services at two different hospices. Today Montague works as a part-time adjunct lecturer and clinical instructor at Arizona Medical Technology Institute, and as an admissions nurse evaluator at The Crossing Hospice Care, a position he enjoys because of the opportunity to work closely with patients and their families. “I’m able to really connect with them,” he said. Several months ago, Indian Health Services referred an end stage cancer patient from a neighboring tribe to Montague. When people are dying, they often revert back to traditional ways, he said. “The patient wanted to hear some Native songs, so I sang to her and that really helped her get settled,” he said. The night before she passed away, the woman’s family requested that Montague come back and sing for her. He sang and played the flute and offered her a Native blessing. “That’s the type of hospice care that I feel very connected to,” he said. This semester, Montague started the Master of Science, Nurse Educator degree program at ASU’s College of Nursing & Health Innovation, and would eventually like to pursue a doctorate. “I want to do research specifically in palliative care and hospice dealing with underserved populations,” he said. Montague said his wide-ranging life experiences have helped shape the way he provides nursing care. Growing up in a traditional Native American home where English wasn’t the first language, going to Cornell and Boston and learning Arabic have all contributed to the way he approaches his patients. “It helps me out when I go into a patient’s room who’s afraid or maybe English isn’t their first language,” he said. “The responses from patients and their families have been really positive, so I think I’m heading in the right direction. I’m 46 and this where I am in my career. It just feels right.”


Interdisciplinary Student-Run Clinic to Serve Local Community

I

n May of 2013, a group of students from Arizona State University, Northern Arizona University and the University of Arizona began developing Arizona’s first student-run clinic for the homeless. This small servicelearning program was named the Student Health Outreach for Wellness (S.H.O.W.) Community Initiative. The idea grew from a desire to develop an interdisciplinary health clinic dedicated to positively addressing a local social issue.

As the program gained support and developed student leaders during the start-up process, its community and volunteer support grew tremendously. More than 150 students from 16 professional programs across the three universities--including nursing, social work, nutrition, medicine, pharmacy, physician assistant, audiology, speech pathology, physical therapy, business, journalism, and computer science--have worked together with faculty and community partners on the design and development of the program. After more than a year of hard work, S.H.O.W. will open its doors in October. Located in downtown Phoenix on the Human Services Campus, the S.H.O.W. clinic will operate during the weekend, providing extended resources to the homeless community, but also preventive holistic care for the benefit of the population. S.H.O.W. is a learning laboratory that is open to all enrolled participating university students with the aim of providing free health promotion, disease prevention, and primary care services to people who are experiencing homelessness in the downtown Phoenix area. S.H.O.W. uses a well-tested student-run clinic embedded in an interprofessional practice model as its foundation to provide much needed services for this highly vulnerable population. S.H.O.W. welcomes university students who wish to complete well designed research and applied projects that meet Internal Review Board approval, while aligning with the mission and vision of the initiative. Through these exploratory activities, S.H.O.W. hopes to contribute to nationallyrecognized health goals of cost effective quality care interventions that impact community health.

As members of interprofessional teams at the clinic, students from diverse backgrounds will work directly with patients to assess, diagnose, and provide treatment and follow-up services under the supervision of licensed clinical faculty members from the universities and community providers who are trained mentors in interprofessional settings. Students will help patients learn how to eat better-specifically, how to use food stamps to leverage nutrition values at local vendors. Students will also facilitate health information stations at the clinic that help patients understand risk factors for chronic illnesses including diabetes, obesity and heart disease. Interested non clinical students can work to support S.H.O.W. by serving on various committees, including Communications and Public Relations, Programming and Special Events, Fund Development and Sustainability, Human Resources, as well as Training and Orientation. Tri-university involvement in S.H.O.W. allows for the latest clinical advancements and evidence-based practice to be incorporated into routine care as a cultural norm. The interprofessional setting supported by multiple partners who share the same values creates an environment where interprofessional viewpoints are appreciated and maximized. Delivering care in an interprofessional setting exposes our future healthcare providers and graduates of other disciplines with never before experienced opportunities.

ASU Professor’s New Book Highlights

Care Coordination as Critical Component in Effective Health Care Delivery

A

rizona State University nursing associate professor Gerri Lamb has been researching, teaching and practicing care coordination for years. A joint faculty appointment with ASU’s College of Nursing & Health Innovation and the Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts has allowed her to share her expertise with students from a variety of fields, ensuring that nurses and other professionals know how to work collaboratively across disciplines to solve the critical health care issues we face today. “Care coordination makes the system work for people,” Lamb said. “It ensures connection and communication between all professionals and parts of the system.” Yet, it wasn’t until her mother became ill a few years ago that Lamb experienced, on a personal level, how a lack of coordination can impact patients and their families – often rendering them helpless and lost in a system that intends to help but cannot, and how it impacts nurses and other health care professionals who, like Lamb, are trained to provide care but are hampered by a disconnected, inefficient system. “Care coordination is all about the connects,” Lamb said. “It’s about the flow of information, ensuring that things are happening at the right time – and that the family is informed. I promised myself that I would do something to make a difference for providers on a larger scale, to strengthen the case for care coordination, and to prevent families from going through what my mother and my family had to go through.”

care coordination is a critical component of the national quality agenda and health care reform. Care coordination is an essential practice for current and future generations of nurses and health professionals who will be serving in new provider roles and embedded in new delivery models as the health care system changes. The authors who were selected to write chapters in the book--Lamb included, have shared powerful examples of evidence-based practice as a part of care coordination efforts at their organizations. Lamb’s students, Karen Colorafi and Nan Solomons, both doctoral candidates in ASU’s College of Nursing & Health Innovation, wrote the chapter titled Care Coordination and Reducing Avoidable Hospital Stays, highlighting the strengths and gaps of research in this important area. Colorafi, a nurse, has been working with Lamb and Karen Marek from ASU on their care coordination research, and is studying engagement of older adults in care planning and meaningful use of health information technology. Solomons, an interprofessional PhD student and quality analyst for MaineHealth Center for Quality and Safety, is exploring nurses’ relationships (their social networks) and the impact on communication and adherence to evidence-based transition tasks to reduce hospital readmissions. Lamb has a long history in care coordination, including experience as co-chair of three care coordination measurement committees at the National Quality Forum--a respected nonprofit public service organization that works on a national level to improve the U.S. health care system.

That promise was fulfilled this year when Lamb’s new book, Care Coordination: The Game Changer, How Nursing is Revolutionizing Quality Care, was released. Published by the American Nurses Association (ANA), Lamb’s Care coordination is the hallmark book is a comprehensive Lamb’s involvement with of a good health care system. look at care coordination collaborative care and from the perspectives interprofessionalism–the practice of working and learning of 23 highly-respected health care thought leaders, each alongside professionals from different disciplines to develop highlighting different care coordination topics essential to health care solutions, began in the 1970’s when she was an improving health and health care delivery. advanced practice nurse at the University of Rochester, an The ANA enlisted Lamb to write the book knowing that institution that integrated faculty practice and education.

Innovations in Nursing & Health


Madeline Schmitt, Lamb’s mentor in Rochester, was doing research on effective teamwork and collaboration, and exposed her to this new way of thinking by taking her to national and international meetings on interprofessionalism. “It’s fascinating how people work together and use their skills to improve health care,” she recalled thinking. At ASU, Lamb teaches and mentors students in the college’s doctoral and health innovation programs where interprofessional education is firmly embedded. She collaborates with her colleagues and students--many from disciplines other than nursing, on local and international projects designed to put her students’ collaboration skills into practice in order to develop effective healing environments for underserved communities.

“It was the way I was mentored, the way I practiced as an advanced practice nurse, and the way I’ve taught and studied,” she said. “Care coordination is the hallmark of a good health care system.” For information about the book, visit NursesBooks.org or call 800-637-0323.

The collaborative process – found in care coordination, case management and interprofessional practice, has been a lifelong journey for Lamb. It is a path she continues to travel today for the benefit of her students, her colleagues, an effective and compassionate health care system, and the health of the communities she serves.

Perseverance and Self-Motivation Drive Clinical Research Management Grad to Succeed Despite Obstacles and Distance

W

hen Freeman Jabari decided to pursue an online clinical research degree, he singled out Arizona State University’s Master of Science in Clinical Research Management (CRM) degree program. “The program content was rich, detailed and well-tailored to my career goals,” he said.

Until he received his acceptance letter, however, he hadn’t given much thought to the challenges he would face living 7,000 miles away in Ghana, West Africa. Because the coursework is online, Jabari would need regular Internet access, which isn’t always guaranteed in Ghana, and he’d have to wrestle with the seven-hour time difference. Other obstacles included raising money for books and tuition and finding time to study while working full time as a clinical research associate for Quintiles, an international biopharmaceutical development company. “The list was endless, nonetheless, I was convinced it was possible,” he said. With the support of his family (his wife and two boys under the age of 5), he was able to reorganize his schedule, raise funds and allocate time to study. “Effective time management is key,” he said. “Perseverance, self-motivation and drive for excellence kept me going.” At the beginning of his career, Jabari worked as a pharmacist in a private hospital in Ghana. But at 26, he felt he was “too energetic to remain in the private sector,” so he joined the Ghana military and served for 3½ years as a pharmacist in local hospitals providing services to civilians as well as military brass. He also served as a pharmacist in the United Nations peacekeeping mission in Lebanon and in the Congo, during which he saw the devastating side effects of war. The military environment proved too routine for Jabari. He was eager to learn and be challenged. When Quintiles came to Ghana in 2009, he secured a job as a clinical research associate. After being promoted to senior clinical research associate, he decided it was time further his education and sought out a degree program. Jabari started the CRM program in the fall semester of 2012, and found the courses to be engaging and oriented to real life experiences. He enjoyed sharing his own skills and practices with his virtual classmates.

This will equip me to help define and transform the next generation of health systems in Africa.


“The discussion board was so lively that it made learning fun,” he said. The online interaction also helped him feel connected to the program and not so alone in the virtual classroom. Barbara Marusiak, clinical assistant professor in the CRM program, worked with Jabari on his capstone project – creating a comprehensive brochure for Agogo Research Center in Ghana, one of the clinical trial sites that Quintiles works with to conduct research. Even though Jabari faced many obstacles, she said, including the time difference and limited Internet resources, he didn’t let that keep him from participating. There were times, she said, when Jabari attended 3 a.m. orientations and class discussions that were taking place at 10 a.m. in Phoenix. Despite the roadblocks, Jabari maintained high standards. “Other students may not have finished,” she said. Earning the degree has also given his career a boost. “I’ve been promoted twice since completing the program,” he said. “I am now an expert in what I do and am very proud of my expertise.” Currently, Jabari serves as clinical operations manager and head of clinical operations for Quintiles in West Africa, where he oversees 12 clinical researchers. In addition, he serves as a resource person for the Food and Drugs Authority Ghana, providing yearly training for principal investigators and evaluating standards and ethics at research sites. He is also responsible for ensuring that the resulting data obtained after conducting clinical trials is in compliance with U.S. FDA regulations since most of their clients are U.S.-based biopharmaceutical companies. Jabari’s educational journey is far from over. He was admitted to the biomedical informatics program with ASU’s College of Health Solutions where he will earn another master’s degree, but this time he’ll attend in person, leaving his family behind in Ghana. After the master’s program, Jabari is also considering a PhD in biomedical informatics, which would enable him to carry out one of his career goals – improving Ghana’s electronic medical records, which are now largely paperbased. He envisions being in a consultancy role focusing on ways to access and utilize data. The degrees will enrich the knowledge and experience he’s gained on the job, he said. “This will equip me to help define and transform the next generation of health systems in Africa.”

Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Names Teri Pipe 2014 Executive Nurse Fellow Teri Pipe, dean of ASU’s College of Nursing & Health Innovation, has been named one of just 20 Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) Executive Nurse Fellows for 2014. Pipe joins a select group of nurses from across the country chosen to participate in the final cohort of this world-class, three-year leadership development program for nurse executives. Pipe is an expert on nursing leadership and mindfulness, and a strong advocate for interprofessionalism. Her research interests include resilience in professional and clinical populations, health promotion and wellness, positive coping and stress management, oncology and gerontology. Begun by the Foundation in 1998, the Executive Nurse Fellows program strengthens the leadership capacity of nurses who aspire to shape health care in their communities, their states and nationally. Supported through a grant from the RWJF, the program will provide Pipe and her colleagues with coaching, education and other support to strengthen their abilities to lead teams and organizations working to improve health and health care. “I am honored to participate in this important program, and am passionate about making the most of this opportunity to make positive change in the health of our communities across the United States,” Pipe said. ”I look forward to learning with and from the other fellows involved in this important endeavor.” Executive Nurse Fellows hold senior leadership positions in health services, scientific and academic organizations, as well as public health, professional, governmental and policy organizations. They continue in their current positions during their fellowships, and each develops a new initiative to improve health care delivery in his or her community.

Alumni Profile

with CONHI Alumna Amy Charette, MS (’89), BSN (’87) What was it about nursing that made you want to be a nurse? As a small child, I occasionally visited my aunt, an RN who graduated from nursing school in 1944. I would be getting dressed for bed when she was dressing to go to the hospital for the night shift – white hose, white uniform, and white shoes – always sparkling white and polished, and a starched white cap carried with her. It was as if she transformed before my eyes into this immaculate angel and she spoke with pride about being a nurse and caring for patients. Then when I was in high school having to make a decision about college, I thought I wanted to be a nurse but had never been around sick people or hospitals. My aunt got me a job as a nurses’ aide for the summer at the hospital. As I learned my responsibilities to help the RN on a medical-surgical floor, I had an “ah ha” moment. I was standing in the hallway after leaving a very ill patient’s room and thought to myself: if I only knew more, I could help her more. That was the day my journey into nursing truly began.

Tell us about your journey from bedside nursing into health management After my summer as a nurses’ aide, I became an LPN working on an obstetrics and gynecology floor. A year later, in 1975, I finished my diploma program in nursing and became an RN. I was asked to consider a position in the Intensive Care Unit instead of Maternity. I don’t know where I got the courage, but I said yes--but only if they promised to return me to Maternity if I was not happy. But there I stayed for 19 years in various roles--15 years in intensive care nursing and 4 years as an emergency room nurse. Then came my first corporate position as director of cardiovascular services for a national hospital chain of then 350 hospitals where I interacted with leaders from the top cardiovascular device companies. I went on to accept a position with a medical device manufacturer, Boston Scientific, on their marketing team where I earned a vice president level position. When a large merger made it evident

I would be more productive if I’d relocate, I decided instead to take early retirement. Now seeking what’s next, I joined a colleague as his chief operating officer at BSM Consulting, a health care consulting firm.

What did you learn about yourself in the corporate world--your “ah-ha” moment, that brought you back to bedside nursing? While serving as the COO of the health care consulting firm, my sister was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer. My younger sister, now facing end of life, made me do some life review: What am I doing with my life and what do I want to do yet in nursing? I decided I wanted to be back helping patients and families more directly. I had always wanted to do hospice nursing – that came out of my ICU and ER experience where dying is a part of nursing in those roles. I participated in Hospice of the Valley’s nurse fellowship program, became a hospice volunteer, and became connected to their admissions department. And in early 2009, I was ready to start work as a hospice admissions nurse.

Tell us about your work with Hospice of the Valley As an admissions nurse I was back walking the halls of hospitals, meeting with patients and families to help them understand how hospice services can support their health care needs as their disease progressed. I shared their pain at finding themselves nearing end of life but loved helping them see that the medical and nursing profession did not abandon them when cures were no longer possible. Then my sister died unexpectedly just as I completed my training.


Alumni Profile continued Although I was grieving, I received support from my fellow admission nurses who understood my loss, and I found solace in the work. Within my first week, I had to do an evaluation on a patient the same age as my sister, same diagnosis. To be there for that family, to help support them, was healing for me as a nurse. Hospice nursing is as much about families as it is about the patient. This is a vulnerable patient population and our mission is the privilege to care for these patients and join them in their journey to end of life.

How did your education at ASU prepare you for your journey? The courses taken in my three year diploma program did not matriculate at the time so I slugged through chemistry when I was 6 months pregnant, took a few courses at a time until we moved to Arizona in 1985 and I entered ASU’s RN to BSN program full time, graduating in 1987. When I graduated with my BSN and started looking at full time positions it was clear that the nursing management roles I desired would require a master’s degree.

I purposefully chose to pursue a master’s in nursing, not business, so I could develop depth in the field of nursing. The program prepared me well for higher level strategic thinking, concept development, better analytical assessments, understanding research and other data, and most of all communicating–written and verbal. Without my master’s degree I would never have been accepted into the corporate world where I had the opportunity to influence patient care around the world and become a vice president in a multi-billion dollar health care business by my 40’s. When someone says what did you go to college for and they answer, “I’m an engineer,” we have a certain mental framework of what that means, and an engineer is welcomed into many roles that are not engineering discipline-specific. I hope to be a model to other nurses that we can help the world learn that when I say “I’m a nurse” they think of us as professionals with multi-disciplinary, integrated problem solving expertise that can be applied to all health care avenues and beyond.

ASU Nursing Instructor Earns Recognition for Professional Excellence

J

essica Morris has always wanted to work in the health care field. There was a time early on, she said, when she thought she might want to become a doctor. And while her decision to pursue nursing was a gradual process, it was her father, in his final days, who ultimately inspired her to take the leap. After a long, brave battle with cancer, Morris lost her father. She distinctly remembers the care and compassion he received in the hospital during his illness, especially from the nurses, as well as his advice about nursing school and all the good she could do by choosing this profession. “He said ‘you’re never going to know how many lives you are going to impact, how much you’ll make a difference,’” Morris recalled. “It was because of my dad, he inspired me.” A caring and committed nurse, Morris earned her BSN from ASU’s College of Nursing & Health Innovation in 2006. She studied medical/surgical nursing, historically considered the foundation for all nursing practice, now considered a very demanding specialty. “The BSN was a great choice,” she said. “I got more out of it (than a 2-year degree) and it started me off where I could get my certifications.” Since graduating, Morris has worked at the Mayo Clinic in Phoenix as a bedside nurse on the 36-bed medical/surgical floor where she cares for colorectal palliative care patients,

often serving as a relief team leader responsible for up to 15 staff members. She also serves as a resource nurse in Mayo’s inpatientoutpatient wound ostomy department where she works closely with ostomy patients in both pre-operative and post-operative care. After two years caring for ostomy patients, Morris studied for and earned her wound ostomy certification in order to increase her knowledge and provide better patient care. A BSN degree, 150 practicum hours, and completion of an accredited graduate-level training program in wound ostomy were required in order for her to sit for the national exam. In addition to bedside nursing, Morris has been an adjunct med/surg instructor for ASU’s BSN program since 2009 where she has clinical oversight of up to 10 students each day. She has taught Junior 1 and 2 classes for ASU at the Mayo, and taught Senior 2 Preceptor in the spring for the first time. With the changes that occur so quickly in the nursing industry -- from clinical practice, to policies, technology, and even equipment, Morris believes that her experiences as a current med/surg bedside nurse are invaluable to her students. “I feel very relevant to my students,” she said. “And it helps me feel more confident as an instructor.”


Morris remembers her very first instructor at ASU when she was a new nursing student, a nurse they all called ‘mom,’ and their first trip to a clinical setting with real patients—the VA hospital. “I was terrified,” she confessed. “It was the first time I had bathed and fed a patient.” Now Morris sees her students engage in experiences in different environments that are outside their comfort zones, just like she had years before, and realizes that they, too, are experiencing for the first time what she did early on as a student – taking care of people who have become very vulnerable. “One of the reasons I love teaching is the farther away you get from school, you forget why you went into nursing in the first place.” she said. “Teaching reminds me of this because I get to watch my students grow.” Her compassion for her patients and dedication to her students has not gone unnoticed by her supervisor at the Mayo Clinic, Anna Marie Hunsaker, and her co-workers, who nominated Morris for the Nurses.com GEM Award, a national competition that recognizes professional excellence in nursing. “The members of our team nominated Jessica as she is considered a superb clinical nurse and leader,” Hunsaker shared. “Co-workers trust her problem-solving skills and judgment in times of crisis and see her as willing to help troubleshoot situations.” The nomination came as a surprise to Morris -- she didn’t know she had been nominated until she was notified that she had been named a regional finalist. At a special dinner gala for finalists, Morris’ name was announced as the winner of the GEM award in the Clinical Nursing, Inpatient category for the Mountain West region. “It was such a big honor, and so surprising.” Morris reflects on her first experience as a new nurse doing clinical rotations at Good Samaritan Hospital, how the memory of those early experiences help her understand her students’ fears, and how those moments shaped who she is today as a confident nurse and teacher. “I was bathing a patient for the first time,” she shared, reflecting on the trust and vulnerability involved in the nursepatient relationship. “Afterward she told me I was going to be a great nurse, and that I had what it takes.” Her first patient made it clear that Morris had chosen the right profession. Those memories, and her daily experiences with patients and students today, are gentle reminders of the intimate nature of the career, the vulnerability she encounters with every patient, and, as her father shared, the difference that nurses can make in the lives of others.

renovated city bus donated by Valley Metro travels twice a week to underserved neighborhoods, schools and community centers in Phoenix and Tempe, providing fresh produce at low prices to “food deserts,” communities in the Phoenix metro area that have limited access to fresh food. The Fresh Express bus, an effort led by the Discovery Triangle Development Corporation, opened for business on March 25. The bus is unique in that it also includes a health clinic in which College of Nursing & Health Innovation students provide health screenings. When Dean Teri Pipe first learned about the Fresh Express bus at a community meeting, she suggested that ASU nursing students participate. Pipe was on hand with Phoenix Mayor Greg Stanton and other dignitaries as the Fresh Express was launched at Brunson-Lee Elementary School in Phoenix on February 25, 2014.

During senior year in the pre-licensure undergraduate nursing program in ASU’s College of Nursing & Health Innovation, students spend a semester with their professors in community health. Through these opportunities, students learn about population-based care, health disparities and the impact that these service organizations have in the community.

Caring for our Most Vulnerable Neighbors

s we walk into the Westward Ho, Kay Jarrell is greeting everyone who crosses her path on the way to the clinic that she and her students host at this once famous hotel. She asks residents how they’re doing, whether they’ve been exercising, eating their fruits and vegetables, or if they’ve quit smoking. She mentions a bingo game that is about to begin to a resident who is looking for something to do. Once we arrive in the hotel’s makeshift clinic, Jarrell and her students are busy providing residents with health screenings, flu shots, nutrition advice, and even pedometers to support their walking programs. Before residents leave the clinic, Jarrell and her students will offer them something to take with them--such as a roll of toilet paper, a tube of toothpaste, or an orange from one of the many baskets sitting on the shelf that contain basic items that Jarrell and her colleagues collect for their patients. “This is life,” Jarrell said. “To me, this is nursing.” The Westward Ho has been converted into a subsidized housing facility for the elderly and mobility impaired--one of the many locations where Jarrell and her colleagues bring their undergraduate nursing students to do their community health rotations.

Innovations in Nursing & Health

Students and faculty are engaged at several clinical sites in Phoenix, Tempe and Mesa to provide care to residents who do not have access to care and rarely receive health education. They conduct health screenings, provide immunizations, deliver presentations, assess risk of chronic disease, provide referrals, and recommend interventions to promote health.

Jarrell, a clinical associate professor in the College of Nursing & Health Innovation, has been taking her students to the Westward Ho and other sites for more than 13 years. She wants her students to remember that people at the Westward Ho and in similar situations do not always have enough food and supplies--many are simply without basic needs. She wants her students to start thinking beyond the hospital. Chelsey Gipaya is a senior in ASU’s BSN program and one of the students in Jarrell’s community health class. Her experiences in community health have opened her eyes to a bigger picture of health care. “We’re used to the typical acute episodes,” she said. “Here we see the same people over and over, so we get to do something about their issues. We see their living situations, find out if they’re taking their meds, and determine if they even have transportation to go pick up their meds.”


Gipaya is visiting with resident Mildred Webb, who is 83 years old and the best walker at the Westward Ho. Webb’s name is listed prominently on a special hand-made walking program poster that is hanging on the wall. Gipaya and Jarrell congratulate Webb on her accomplishment as she leaves the clinic with a couple of items from clinic’s baskets. “Community health is important,” Gipaya said. “Health care is going to turn here. It’s about prevention, lifestyle, helping the person overall, helping them understand, educating them, and providing incentives through programs.”

T

he nurse clinic at the Lodestar Day Resource Center is located in a small classroom at the back of the facility’s lobby. At other times the classroom serves as a makeshift courtroom. Today, it is set up with four long tables and chairs where ASU nursing students are providing health screenings to Lodestar residents. The Lodestar Day Resource Center, located in downtown Phoenix, offers a number of services to people who are experiencing homelessness, including job assistance, social support services, education, health care and a place to stay cool when the temperatures rise. While helping residents with their health issues is their primary goal, the students are also learning about some of the impacts of being homeless: lack of support systems, mental health issues, nutrition issues, higher rates of illness, and lack of medical care. “They learn first-hand about the struggles of vulnerable populations,” said Shirley Kleinlein, clinical assistant professor with ASU’s College of Nursing & Health Innovation.

“They quickly realize that ‘non-compliant’ is not accurate when assessing this population,” she said. “They realize that they don’t see a doctor or take their meds because they don’t have money. Students see this and begin to understand.”

Lauren Leander first realized she wanted to be a nurse when she traveled to Guatemala and volunteered in a clinic that served the local community. As a volunteer, she was trained on site in first aid, tropical diseases and the meds that treat them. As a Barrett Honors BSN student and recent graduate, she had the chance to provide health screenings to people in the downtown Phoenix area who had become very vulnerable. “Reaching out is important, and to be in their environment,” she said. “It gives them an opportunity to receive help if they want it. It’s empowering for people to take control of their health.” For sites like the Lodestar where the population is transient, Kleinlein believes her students may still see the same patients more than once and have the opportunity to monitor their health and progress. She also believes that the community health class gives her students the opportunity to see how hard it is for the homeless to take care of themselves. “Students come away knowing and feeling they understand all the external factors and how they play into the health of an individual.” During the community health class, students keep a journal to record their experiences in the community settings, a requirement for the program. The journals make it clear how much her students are learning from their experiences serving vulnerable populations, Kleinlein said. “They’ve learned to be thankful for what they do have,” she said. “It’s going to make them a better nurse.” Partnerships with these local organizations, developed by faculty from the College of Nursing & Health Innovation, have given numerous ASU nursing students the opportunity to learn and serve in community settings. Last year 180 students were able to work with vulnerable populations in community health settings, with an increase in participation expected this year as ASU’s post-baccalaureate students recently began participating. By working with these local populations, students explore creative strategies to improve health outcomes while learning about the plight and needs of our most vulnerable neighbors.

Former Dean, Juanita Murphy,

J

Demonstrates Lifelong Dedication to Students and the College

uanita Murphy blazed her own trail on the way to becoming a nurse and ultimately the dean of ASU’s College of Nursing & Health Innovation. In fact, had it not been for her father’s objection to her first career choice-a school teacher, she may never have considered the profession of nursing. Juanita received her nursing diploma, and much to her surprise, the hospital where she worked as a nursing student later recruited her to become their hospital director. She was only 26 years old! After a few years in this role, Juanita knew she would greatly benefit by furthering her education, so she went back to school and earned her MBA degree from Case Western Reserve University.

scholarship contributions for graduate students after she retired. In addition to her generous and faithful annual scholarship contributions, she recently made a significant commitment through her estate. One day, this commitment will endow a scholarship fund that will provide significant scholarship support for Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) students in perpetuity. Juanita’s most recent scholarship recipient, Jessica Sandler, shared the following thoughts after having an opportunity to meet her:

Next, Juanita served as the director of a rehabilitation hospital. She enjoyed this work very much, but it wasn’t long before she decided it was time to pursue her doctorate degree. Her passion for education came shining through again as she graduated with a PhD in sociology and psychology at the age of 35. Juanita was then recruited to begin a nursing doctoral program at the University of Kansas. As she was focusing her research on health in rural populations, she also became very interested in the comprehensive body of nursing knowledge. As a result, she founded the Theory of Nursing conference which was attended by nursing professors from across the United States. One of the conference attendees was Ellamae Branstetter, a very well-respected faculty member from the ASU College of Nursing & Health Innovation. Ellamae invited Juanita to visit ASU, and soon thereafter in 1971, Juanita became the dean. After enjoying a long tenure as dean, Juanita chose to focus her work on teaching, the career that she had wanted to pursue since she was a young girl. She became a full-time professor in the mid-1980’s, and stayed with the college until she retired in 1995. When reflecting on her time as an ASU professor, she said, “I met some of the most remarkable students you could imagine and I am extremely fortunate to still keep in touch with many of them.” Juanita was so moved by her experience working with ASU students that she started providing philanthropic

“I am thrilled at the opportunity to meet and profusely thank her as she has had a significant impact on my education. I hope I was able to articulate how much her contributions have meant to me.” As one might imagine, Juanita has stayed very active in retirement. She lives in Prescott, Arizona, and served on the board of the Yavapai Regional Medical Center for many years. She is currently writing a book that will focus on helping people who are nearing the end of their life. The College of Nursing & Health Innovation would like to extend its most sincere gratitude to Juanita. On behalf of all the students who have benefited from your generosity, and those yet to come, thank you!

housands of people visit the Winspear Opera House in Dallas every year, but very few visit in order to pitch a new product idea to CEOs, entrepreneurs, physicians, and the mayor of Fort Worth. This May, ASU Master of Healthcare Innovation student Kacee Roberson did just that.

Roberson works as a policy system administrator for Texas Health Resources, a health care delivery system that includes 25 acute care and short-stay hospitals. After submitting her idea for a mobile app in her company’s Innovation Pitch Day competition, she was selected as one of three finalists from more than 150 applicants to present at the company’s 2014 reVive conference.

Eve Krahe, director of Healthcare Innovation programs with ASU’s College of Nursing & Health Innovation, said that Roberson exemplifies the kind of innovation that the MHI program anticipates from students. “We expect that our students will implement their MHI Change Project following graduation, if not before,” Krahe said. “It’s the highest compliment you can pay an MHI student to say, ‘we expected you to do that.’ Kacee’s accomplishment is yet another reason to celebrate the culture of innovation within the MHI program and what it facilitates for students, bettering outcomes for organizations and consumers alike.”

Roberson presented her mobile app idea to a public audience at reVive that included Douglas Hawthorne, CEO of Texas Health Resources; Betsy Price, Mayor of Fort Worth; and Lily Peng, Health Category Manager for Google Helpouts. Her app, InMotion, is designed to help patients take charge of their health care. “The app will provide online scheduling, mobile appointment check in, wait time information, and notifications like appointment and fasting reminders,” Roberson said. “It’s taking patients’ health care and putting it in their hands.” The Master of Healthcare Innovation program (MHI) at ASU requires all students to take the IT Strategy in Healthcare course, which focuses on information technology trends and their strategic application in health care--which Roberson used to her advantage. She had already started working on her app idea when she started the program, and she was able to turn that idea into her final project for the class. “I have been working on the idea for the app throughout the MHI program, and I’ve been building on it based on what I learned in each class,” she said. “It was really neat to be able to take my final project for the IT class, make some modifications to it and submit it for the competition.” Roberson was praised by the judges for the depth of her project.

Texas Health Resources has a department dedicated to health care innovation, and Roberson was interested in getting involved. After researching health care innovation programs she found ASU’s MHI program and it seemed like a perfect fit. “My company wants those innovative ideas and they want to bring them to life,” she said. “So when I found this program online I was excited. I love that the program is so applicable to what I want to do and where my company is going in the future.” While the MHI program is offered by the College of Nursing & Health Innovation, students represent a variety of professions and industries beyond health care. Krahe explained that professionals who want to make a difference in health care do not need to be health care practitioners to be practitioners of innovation in this area. “I think the MHI program has really given me the drive to know how I can affect patients’ lives without being a clinician,” Roberson said. “That’s important because it sometimes seems that if you’re not on the floor with patients then you can’t touch their lives. I now know that by thinking innovatively I can improve the lives of our patients.”

THE POWER OF RESILIENCE:

ASU Nursing Graduate, Veteran Pays It Forward with Skill and Compassion

J

ustin Crawford grew up fast. As a teenager, he worked a construction job at a truss plant for a couple of years after being expelled from high school for disruptive behavior and then leaving home. Going to work was the only option, he said, to generate income to be able to support himself. His construction crew included men in their 30’s and older, including ex-convicts. Although he was the youngest member of the crew at 17--and did not have a high school diploma, he knew he wanted more. “I thought ‘I don’t want to be doing this when I’m 40,’” he said. “I needed a plan to get out of that environment.” Crawford moved forward and earned his GED. Four months later he joined the army where he served for 8 years--4 years in active duty and 4 years in the reserves. While in active duty he trained to be a switch operator, which allowed him to work with mobile voice and data systems. The army also trained him as a network engineer, giving him the skills to secure employment in private industry after his service in the army ended. They also trained him to be a medic. Crawford’s first duty station in the army took him to Korea where he served as a combat lifesaver, learning and practicing simulated triage-type activities that medics typically perform such as administering IVs, treating dehydration, shock, chest wounds and fractures, and assisting in battlefield casualty scenarios. “I can still do it in my sleep,” he said about the repetition involved in the military’s training. “It sticks with you.” He also joined company and battalion runs in his role as a medic--completely suited up with a heavy pack and equipment, providing care when needed to his fellow soldiers. Although most of his peers were 18-24 years old and pretty fit, he said, there were times when his skills were needed.

His experiences with combat lifesaving had made an impression. While his training in the army did not include science or formal health care education, he learned to treat most types of battlefield injuries. He provided direct care to people in distress, something he enjoyed and felt he did well. “If people with no formal medical training and experience can help in these situations, imagine what I could do with training,” he thought. Crawford went back to school and earned his associate’s degree in nursing (ADN). After graduating and becoming a registered nurse, he accepted a job with the Phoenix VA Health Care System, where he’s been ever since—a vet serving other vets. At the VA, Crawford splits his time between teaching and providing home care and case management. “I enjoy the autonomy,” he said of his dual role. As a senior master trainer in PMDB—Prevention and Management of Disruptive Behavior for the VA, Crawford teaches health care professionals--physicians, nurses, pharmacists and social workers, as well as kitchen staff and clerks, about workplace violence and how to prevent reactive or emotional episodes—something he understands well. “Growing up I was stabbed, shot at, and got into many physical altercations,” he said. “I was also trained to use violence in the army, so I believe I have good insight into violence, as I have experienced it for much of my life, and have been on both sides of the fence.”

After leaving the army, Crawford went to work for a private telecommunications company where he utilized his experience as a switch operator. When the company folded, he needed to decide whether to stay in the field or do something else.

As a psychiatric nurse for the Phoenix VA, Crawford travels to homes or shelters to provide care to mentally ill veterans, some who are homeless. He coordinates their care and makes recommendations to their physicians, and often takes his patients on outings in the community, providing the companionship and camaraderie that only a fellow vet can provide.

“I decided I wanted something different and more stable than anything the telecommunications industry had to offer,” he said. “I thought, ‘Maybe I can do medical.’”

“I get to treat the individual, not the diagnosis,” he said about being a psych nurse, especially with his veteran population.

Innovations in Nursing & Health


“ Knowing their case manager is a veteran helps his patients relax, feel understood, and trust the care they are receiving. Crawford also gets something from serving other vets. He enjoys working directly with people, serving those who have had challenges in their lives, and making a connection on a personal level. He also understands their needs. “I left home at a young age, and I’ve interacted with people throughout my life who have had mental illness and substance abuse issues,” he said. “While taking my pre-reqs for the ADN program, I took many psych classes-developmental, intro, abnormal, sociology, interpersonal communications, and these interested me more than the anatomy and physiology classes.” Last December Crawford earned his bachelor’s degree in nursing, summa cum laude, through ASU’s RN-BSN program. The online format fit well with his busy schedule at work, his family life as a single dad, and his precepting duties with ASU and other colleges whose nursing students are doing their clinicals at the hospital.

I get to treat the individual, not the diagnosis.

Having a bachelor’s degree will allow him to advance professionally at the VA--in salary and opportunities, he said. Crawford is now thinking about going back for his graduate degree, and would like to teach at a university someday. ASU’s Doctor of Nursing Practice program is a consideration, he said, because he could teach advanced practice to nursing students. Between his teaching and precepting duties, Crawford’s experience as a teacher adds up. When thinking about an advanced degree, he reflects on his experience and how it could support his next steps. “I’ve done everything that I would teach” he said. In many ways, he has learned the hard way about the power of resilience. A skilled and compassionate professional, Crawford brings unique and valuable life experiences and insights to the healing process, especially to the vets who depend on him every week. “Compassion plays a big part in both my psychiatric nursing and PMDB training, as I have lived and experienced what many people are going through, and this helps me better understand their circumstances.”

Health Care Scholar,

Suzanne Gordon,

Shares her Insights at 2014 Lectureship

T

he 4th Annual Mary Killeen Visiting Scholar for Educational Excellence, Beyond the Checklist: How to End the Epidemic of Patient Harm, was hosted by the ASU College of Nursing & Health Innovation on January 13, 2014 at the ASU Downtown Campus. This year’s scholar was Suzanne Gordon, an internationally recognized journalist and health care scholar, known for her unique transdisciplinary perspective on improving patient safety, work organization, patient satisfaction and outcomes. Gordon’s presentation drew faculty, undergraduate and graduate students and community members to the day’s events. Community members represented the Arizona State Board of Nursing, Mayo Clinic AZ, Banner Healthcare, Scottsdale Healthcare, Dignity Health, and the NAU Department of Physician Assistant Studies. The morning session showcased portions of Gordon’s play, “Bedside Manners,” which illustrates several health care scenarios involving the dynamics of health team communication. The audience commented on how the scenes reminded them of similar experiences in their own professional careers. The session was planned in conjunction with the college’s PhD program and was included as part of the spring PhD immersion. The afternoon session, “From Silence to Voice,” targeted undergraduate nursing students and faculty. During the presentation, Gordon spoke about tools nurses can utilize to explain the scope and complexity of nursing work. The evening session, “Beyond the Checklist,” focused on the nurse’s role in patient safety and how to enhance the impact of nurses in this essential role. Gordon made comparisons to safety regulations established by the aviation industry and how they can be translated into the health care environment.
