The focus of the Education Workgroup is to integrate environmental health content into all levels of nursing curriculum, including basic, advanced, and continuing education. This will include developing a virtual “e-text” in Environmental Health and Nursing, incorporating environmental health content on the NCLEX and other certifying exams, developing a white paper following up the IOM report, and connecting with nursing students. As a recognized nurse educator focused on environmental health, we would be delighted if you would consider joining the Education Workgroup. The Workgroup, currently co-chaired by Dr. Jeanne Leffers at University of Massachusetts and Patti Gates-Smith, MSN, RNC at PA State Nurses Association, meets the first Wednesday of the month.
