A strong supporter of healthy living both in and out of the nursing classroom, students listen when I speak of the importance of a holistic approach to self-care that includes regular exercise, healthy eating, sleep, and stress management. Nursing school is rigorous. Students ought to be introduced to ways in which living well can assist them not only in their academic success, but as future nurses.
With a firm belief that assisting students to maintain a balance of self-care while learning to care for others is critical, as part of the educator role, nurse faculty must also learn to maintain this delicate balance. Adopting philosophies congruent with those of HNHN can facilitate this process.

In September, with the assistance of HNHN, I plan to work toward creation of an overall ‘Culture of Health’ within the school of nursing. Similar to training for the Ironman, this process will require planning, effort, and perseverance. To improve the health of nurses now and in the future, the message of HNHN must be brought to the finish line.
