Nurses Unboxed

This episode discusses a unique collaboration between faculty in the College of Nursing at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center in Memphis and St. Jude Children's Research Hospital also in Memphis. This collaboration exposes undergraduate nursing students to the role of Research Nurse Manager and provides opportunities for students to learn what that entails and how research further supports patient care.

Guests for this episode include Dr. Marie Gill, Director of the Margaret A. Newman Center for Nursing Theory at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center in the College of Nursing and Dr. Chinomso Nwozichi, Assistant Professor at the WellStar School of Nursing in Kennasaw, Georgia. Our discussion includes the use of Dr. Margaret A. Newman's Health as Expanding Consciousness theory in Dr. Nwozichi's research related to Nigerian women breast cancer survivors.   

Join Dr. Lisa Beasley, Family Nurse Practitioner, and Advanced Forensic Nurse, for an episode with nurse researchers Avonne Yang and Dia Xiong as we talk about their study featuring Dr. Margaret Newman's Theory - Health as Expanding Consciousness. Yang and Xiong discuss, in-depth, their research on Hmong culture, particularly, Hmong women living with their diagnosis of diabetes.
