Discover Mental Health: The Forgotten Piece in Elder Care
FPB helps produce a video featuring some of the biggest names in gerontology and psychiatric/mental health nursing research
Posted 3/21/2011
The FPB School of Nursing was a major contributor to a special video produced by the American Academy of Nursing's geropsychiatric collaboration with the John A. Hartford Foundation. It features FPB's own Dean May L. Wykle, who was one of the first nurses to receive an academic award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH). She shares her thoughts on her legacy of research in gerontology and psychiatric/mental health, and she is joined by other notable figures that include Kitty Buckwalter (the University of Iowa), who was an early Cellar visiting professor at the FPB School of Nursing.
FPB's adult gerontology nurse practitioner program for advanced practice nurses is ranked by U.S. News and World Report as #5 in the country.
