Welcome back!

The EKM will be co-hosting a workshop by Visiting Professor, Dr. Megan Davies on January 27 at noon. The workshop will center on “Mental Health History Resources for Nursing Education and Practice: A workshop on community-informed mental health curriculum.” A new set of web-based mental health curricula which employs historical documents and artistic expressions of current service users as tools for fostering informed and empathic practice will be presented. Participants will also learn about the unique way in which the resources were created and have an opportunity to use and evaluate the resources.
