N.J. Nursing Professor to Help RNs Transition to Faculty
Tuesday, September 08, 2009
Transitioning from clinical practice to an academic role can be fraught with challenges. Sigma Theta Tau International’s new Nurse Faculty Mentored Leadership Development Program aims to support novice nurse educators as they learn the art of teaching and build successful, rewarding faculty careers.
“So many new faculty come into the role and are quite overwhelmed with it,” says D. Anthony “Tony” Forrester, RN, PhD, ANEF, a professor at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey School of Nursing in Newark. He also is a professor in residence and interdisciplinary health research consultant at Morristown (N.J.) Memorial Hospital and an expert faculty member for the Nurse Faculty Mentored Leadership Development Program.
