INACSL Announces Creation of the Hayden Vanguard Lectureship

MORRISVILLE, N.C. - Sept. 22, 2015 - PRLog -- The International Nursing Association for Clinical Simulation & Learning (INACSL) is pleased to announce the creation of the Hayden Vanguard Lectureship.

Funded by CAE Healthcare, the Hayden Vanguard Lectureship honors the work of Jennifer Hayden, who completed one of the largest and most meaningful nursing education studies ever devised – the National Council of State Boards of Nursing: National Simulation Study (https://www.ncsbn.org/685.htm).

The lectureship will be awarded annually to an INACSL member who has contributed to the discipline and moved simulation forward in a meaningful way through research, program, evaluation, or similar scholarly product.  Starting in 2016 the recipient will present a one-hour plenary address about his/her innovation or research during the endnote session at the INACSL Conference held each June.

“INACSL is pleased to honor Jennifer’s legacy in such a meaningful way and to recognize continued innovation that will carry simulation into the future as the discipline grows and changes,” said INACSL President Teresa Gore, PhD, DNP, FNP-BC, NP-C, CHSE-A.
