Navy Lieutenant Commander Pamela Wall, director of USU's Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner program, recently spoke at a Joining Forces event held at the University of Pennsylvania, where she is working toward a Doctor of Philosophy.
"The Joining Forces initiative is important, because it provides America's nurses with the education, information and sensitivity they need to recognize and treat conditions that are unique to military and veteran populations," said Wall, who was hand-selected by the dean of Penn's nursing school to talk about her nurse corps experiences.
At the event, Wall also introduced first lady Michelle Obama, another Joining Forces guest speaker, who called nurses the "frontline of America's healthcare."
