Welcome to the Show

Good day and welcome to this week’s episode of the Nursing Show podcast for nurses, by nurses. I’m your host Jamie Davis and I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for checking out the show this week. In this week’s episode, I recently attended the NTI Critical Care Nurses Conference in Houston and interviewed Karen S. Kesten, DNP, RN, APRN, CCRN-K, CCNS, CNE, the chair of the AACN Certification Corporation board of directors. As Associate Professor at the George Washington University School of Nursing, Washington, DC, Dr. Kesten has experience as a bedside nurse in critical care, educator, and researcher. She most recently served as director of faculty initiatives at American Association of Colleges of Nursing, Washington, DC.

Here’s that segment from the American Association of Critical-Care Care Nurses (AACN.org) NTI 2017 conference in Houston.
