Nursing Research

Nursing Leadership

Pamela S. Hinds, PhD, RN, FAAN
Director, Department of Nursing Research

The Department of Nursing Research supports a model for evidence based nursing that includes the ongoing integration of multiple sources of evidence: research, performance improvement, the nurse’s experience and judgment making, and patient and family preferences and experience with healthcare.  Excellence in nursing practice is a mindset of continually evaluating care improvements that result in enhanced outcomes for the patient, the family, and the organization. The academic leaders of the Nursing Research department provide research mentorship, promote intra-professional research, and engage nurses in the systematic examination of their clinical hypotheses.

Nursing Research facilitates the work of Shared Nursing Leadership Councils at both the Department of Nursing and unit levels.
