10A: Building Rural Nursing Leadership for Community Resilience and Disaster Response

Friday, September 25 | 4:30 p.m. – 5:15 p.m. 

Rural communities face escalating natural and human-made disasters, requiring nurse leaders prepared for rapid response with limited resources. This session explores leadership development in rural nursing education and specific curriculum design decisions, using Benner’s role transition model and NLN Competency V to prepare faculty and students as community-based change agents for disaster readiness and recovery.
