Hello! I am an Associate Professor and Associate Dean in the College of Nursing at the University of Saskatchewan, Canada. My background includes close to three decades of nursing in rural acute care, long term care, and home care. My research interests include the health or rural populations, and more specifically the health of rural child populations. I am particularly interested in using mixed methods to explore the meaning of health for rural children, the health behaviors of this aggregate, and the development of health promotion programs that are tailored to rural child populations. I am also interested in interprofessional education, in particular the role of patients and families in IPE.
