Bio: |
Ms.
Homan was the first faculty member employed in the Division of
Nursing when it was established in 1974. She is the only charter
faculty member still with the Division. She was actively involved in
obtaining initial accreditation for the program and has developed
the Self-Study Reports that resulted in continued accreditation by
the Alabama Board of Nursing and the National League for Nursing.
She also developed the proposal that led to approval by the Board of
Nursing for the Division of Nursing to provide continuing education
activities for nurses in the area. To date the faculty of the
Division have provided programs that have allowed over 100 nurses in
the area to meet the mandatory continuing education requirement for
license renewal in the state. |
