Clinical Nurse Specialist (CNS) Hub

CNS_screen

Inspired by the Center for Home Care site, Professor Joyce Pulcini and her colleagues in the Connell School of Nursing envisioned a web site for CNS students and faculty as well as practitioners in local hospitals and agencies, some of whom supervise CSON students in the field. They also had the goal of providing a Blackboard Vista environment rich in content, communication and assessment activities, for a graduate CNS course with a significant online component.

Course modules were collaboratively developed by a team of CSON faculty and CNS supervisors, representing a diversity of specializations. An area for staff offers related professional and educational resources. IDeS staff provided design consultation, custom graphics, and training for CSON assistants maintaining the site.
