Join us for an Engaging and Informative Webinar on Public and Patient Involvement (PPI) in Interprofessional Education (IPE) for Undergraduate Healthcare Students!

In recent years, healthcare education across Europe has seen a growing focus on Public and Patient Involvement (PPI), with patients becoming active partners in the learning process for future healthcare professionals. This webinar will explore the transformative potential of integrating PPI into Interprofessional Education (IPE), where students from diverse healthcare disciplines collaborate alongside patients to foster a deeper, patient-centered approach to care. We will highlight innovative educational programs that have successfully incorporated PPI, demonstrating how these initiatives enhance learning outcomes and better prepare students to provide holistic, patient-focused care.

During this session, we will delve into the benefits and challenges of implementing PPI-based interprofessional education. While these programs have been shown to improve communication, promote teamwork, and enhance the patient experience, they also present unique logistical, cultural, and institutional challenges. We will provide actionable insights on how to overcome these hurdles and implement effective PPI strategies within educational frameworks.

In addition, participants will be introduced to leading global and European organizations at the forefront of PPI and IPE. You will gain practical guidance on the essential steps required to initiate or enhance similar programs at your own institution, empowering you to take a leadership role in promoting patient-centered education. Whether you are an educator, healthcare professional, or student, this webinar will equip you with the tools and knowledge to make a meaningful impact in healthcare education.

Have you been involved in research or EBP projects recently?  Show us your work and enter to win $500 through our Alpha Alpha Lambda Sigma Research and EBP Award.

The Deadline was just extended to March 16th, 2025.

NCSBN is currently recruiting qualified nurses to serve on item review and item writing panels for the NCLEX-RN examination. Interested volunteers may apply directly on our website:
 
Volunteers who participate on these panels are an integral part of the item development process. We especially need nurses who are currently supervising newly licensed practical/vocational nurses (LPN/VNs). Please forward this information to qualified nurses in your state today.
 
The NCLEX is designed to test the knowledge, skills and abilities essential to safe and effective nursing practice at the entry level. The process of developing questions for the NCLEX-PN and NCLEX-RN examinations requires multiple steps and involves many qualified volunteer nurses to write and review items.
 
Benefits of participating on NCSBN item development panels:

• Contribute to promoting continued excellence in the nursing profession
• Have opportunities to network on a national and international level
• Build new skills for professional growth
• Receive verification of continuing education contact hours

Qualifications for volunteer nurses interested in participating are outlined in the NCLEX Item Development brochure. All volunteer opportunities are held at the NCSBN office in downtown Chicago, and travel expenses, including airfare, lodging and meals, are covered by NCSBN.

We have added an Instagram page. Feel free to follow as we will update when we have events, volunteer opportunities, meeting dates and all information related to our chapter.

Dr. Barbara Blozen, President of the Board of Nursing is the key note speaker 

As nursing students and new nurses, we dread encountering our first patient death. As veteran nurses, our first experience of a patient’s death can haunt us for years. In the high-stakes environment of an intensive care unit, the fight for life often feels unrelenting. But what happens when a patient chooses to stop fighting?

This deeply moving story takes you into the heart of one nurse’s experience with a young man facing an impossible choice: continue with a risky heart transplant or embrace the dignity of death on his own terms. Through her journey, we witness profound acts of compassion—from the ICU staff’s efforts to honor the patient’s decision to his final, selfless act of organ donation.

This thought-provoking article explores the meaning of dignity in healthcare, compassion in nursing, and the courage it takes to define both life and death. Read on to discover what it means to truly honor a life well-lived.

The "Caring for our Neighbors" is a fantastic event spearheaded by Professor Lisa Eades.

She has worked hard to meet the needs of our community and supports the Fairmont State University School of Nursing Program Students as they become involved in these events and strive to meet the real-life needs of the people who live in our area.

I can not say enough good things about this important work.

At this time, I would like to share her words as she describes her journey and purpose.  

Malisa D. Eades, MSN, RN, CNE is an experienced nursing educator and department chair with a passion for fostering student success and faculty development. With a Master of Science in Nursing and certification as a Nurse Educator, she has dedicated her career to shaping the next generation of nurses. Professor Eades began her journey in nursing education in 2017 and now oversees the ASN program, managing multiple courses, faculty responsibilities, and departmental operations. Known for her innovative teaching strategies and student-centered approach, she supports students through challenges in clinical practice, foundational thinking, and critical care concepts. Professor Eades is also committed to serving underserved populations and actively mentors new nurse educators.

Keynote Speaker: Dr. Julie Kurkowski

The Workplace Matters

Dr. Kurkowski received her BSN, master's in nursing education and PhD in Nursing from Villanova University. As a professional nurse, Dr. Kurkowski spent almost nine years in the Emergency Department at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, frequently working as the primary preceptor for many new-to-practice nurses and witnessing firsthand the prevalence and consequences of workplace conditions, especially related to workplace violence. Her leadership role in simulation unit education within the ED led her to a position as simulation educator for the Penn Medicine health system and ultimately her current position as Nursing Faculty Simulation Coordinator at WCU. Her clinical and educational experiences inspired her to pursue a PhD and continue her research endeavors in hopes to contribute to the practice, conditions, and evidence of the nursing profession. Outside of her faculty role, she enjoys riding her Peloton, going to the shore, and spending time planning for her upcoming wedding in January 2026!
