The University of San Francisco had a very strong presence at the National Clinical Nurse Leader Summit in San Diego last week, with close to 20 CNL faculty and students in attendance at the conference.
Students Clay Hooper and Lilly Fung had a chance to meet Mary Wakefield after her keynote address at the Summit.
According to the HRSA website, Mary Wakefield, Ph.D., R.N., was named administrator of the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) by President Barack Obama on February 20, 2009. HRSA is an agency of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
HRSA works to fill in the health care gaps for people who live outside the economic and medical mainstream. The agency uses its $7 billion annual budget (FY 2008) to expand access to quality health care in partnership with health care providers and health professions training programs.
