I <br />nursing practice candidate at Duke University, and have a background in <br />injury prevention and emergency nursing. <br />Boards /Commissions applied for: <br />Board of Health <br />Background, education and experience relevant to this board: <br />am a doctoral of <br />health policy, <br />As an RN with 34 years of experience in intensive care and emergency nursing,l have a broad <br />understanding of our health care system from preventive care to treatment issues. I received a <br />master of public health degree from UC Berkeley, and became active in county wide injury <br />prevention strategies by managing a local coalition. I am currently completing my doctoral in <br />nursing practice at Duke University, and have broadened my understanding of health care <br />access and policy issues on a local, state and federal level. <br />Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: <br />I believe that both my recent academic and 34 years of experience in health care have given me <br />a deep understanding of our current health care challenges including health care access issues, <br />health education,and prevention challenges presenting county government today. I have actively <br />and effectively participated in board work, and am a positive contributor. The ability to carefully <br />weigh and analyze issues is a personal strength that I believe may assist me to be an effective <br />advisor to a Board of Health. I believe in Orange County and its ability to make decisions to <br />improve the health and well being of its residents. <br />Conflict of Interest: <br />
