Research focuses on optimizing nursing care for patients with muscle, bone, and joint injuries and its impact on patient outcomes. My work has involved an in-depth examination of unwarranted variations in care quality and their far-reaching impact on patients and society, along with their correlation to national healthcare reforms. Objectives include investigating tools for personalized care and enhancing nurses' competencies. Additionally, international research is led on developing and evaluating a tool for postoperative observation.
My teaching philosophy emphasizes dialogue and research-based learning. I facilitate students' knowledge acquisition and development with the goal of them becoming self-regulated and confident professionals in their field. I teach epidemiological methods, including registry research and methods for quality development and monitoring. I supervise Ph.D. students and occasionally master's students.
