Acting provost Bob Orr announced Thursday the renewal of Linda Patrick to a second five-year term as dean of the Faculty of Nursing, effective July 1.
During Dr. Patrick’s first term, the Faculty of Nursing received the highest accreditation decision from the Canadian Association of Schools of Nursing; launched an online interprofessional Graduate Diploma in Advanced Practice Oncology and Palliative Care; and expanded into the third floor of the Murray O’Neil Medical Education Building.
She serves on the board of directors of the Canadian Association of Schools of Nursing and on the executive committee of the Council of Ontario University Programs in Nursing, and recently co-edited and co-authored the textbook Fundamentals: Perspectives on the Art and Science of Canadian Nursing.
