Seminar on 'invisible' nurses Friday 4:54 p.m., Feb. 9, 2005--UD’s Department of Health, Nutrition and Exercise Sciences nutrition program presents a seminar with Deborah Wilson, assistant professor of nursing, from 12:20-1:15 p.m., on Friday, Feb. 11, in 202 Alison Hall. Wilson’s presentation focuses on how the sense of being invisible and voiceless in the workplace can compel people to use time and energy in activities designed to prove themselves. She will describe the sense of being powerless in the work place expressed by African-American registered nurses in the health care setting and share her thoughts on the possible impact of invisibility and voicelessness on persons from culturally diverse backgrounds. Wilson is a graduate of Louisiana State University Health Science Center. Her nursing experience includes more than 30 years as an educator. Her research explores areas of cultural diversity that affect health care disparity, as well as disparity among health care providers, especially African-Americans. Her most recent publication is "Conceptualizing African-American Registered Nurses as a Vulnerable Population." To learn how to subscribe to UDaily, click here. |
