Meeting the Moment: Delivering Excellence in an Era of Health Care Scarcity
As nurses and midwives struggle with fewer resources and increasingly complex health care financing, how can we ensure accessible, high-quality care for all patients?
Drawing from a distinguished career spanning multiple nursing disciplines—from nurse-midwifery to family health to critical care—Dr. Kennedy brings a unique, multifaceted perspective to these pressing issues. As an accomplished practitioner, educator, and researcher, she will share practical strategies for enhancing clinical practice, advancing nursing education, and driving meaningful research, all while sustaining professional fulfillment in demanding times.
