Assistant VP Of Nursing Sees 100th

Publication In Print

 

September 16, 2002

 

ROME – Getting published in an academic journal is one measure of a professional’s expertise and reputation in the field. 

 

Connie A. Jastremski, M.S., R.N., the assistant vice president of nursing at Rome Memorial Hospital has had 100 journal articles, book chapters and editorials published during her career, the most recent in the September 2002 “Critical Care Nursing Clinics of North America.”

 

The quarterly journal is a resource that provides information on new techniques and procedures, developments in technology and drugs, and practical skills for critical care nurses. 

 

Jastremski’s article addresses the role of advanced practice nurses in response to increased demand for critical care providers.  Using outcomes research, she demonstrates the potential value advanced practice nurses can provide in the critical care setting.

 

Jastremski has more than 30 years of experience in the acute care setting and over 20 years as an educator.  She received her diploma in nursing in 1969.  She earned her bachelor’s degree in nursing in 1980 and her master’s degree in 1982.  In 1997, she graduated from Syracuse University with a master of business administration degree and received her post masters certificate for adult nurse practitioner in 1998 from SUNY Health Science Center.

 

Before joining the staff at Rome Memorial Hospital in 1999, Jastremski served as acting chief nursing officer and the director of critical care and emergency nursing at Upstate Medical Center in Syracuse.  Since 1991, she has been teaching at Upstate Medical University College of Nursing, where she is still a guest lecturer.

 

“Connie’s reputation is a valuable tool for recruiting and retaining nurses at Rome Memorial Hospital,” said Personnel Manager Regina Chambers.  “Each time one of her articles is published, the hospital gains national exposure.”
