Welcome!

Hello all!

My name is Meghan and I am currently a nursing student at The University of Alabama at Birmingham School of Nursing. I was selected to be part of the wonderful Honors in Nursing Program. The program covers a series of three semesters and is based upon service learning as well as research. Service learning incorporates three areas: civic engagement, academic learning, and community service.

For my project I have partnered with Children's Hospital. My mentor is a pediatric nurse practitioner, Kristen Osborn, who works with sickle cell patients. I will be presenting updates on this blog about my service learning project including my academic progress, and my involvement with the traveling sickle cell clinic. More to come!
