"I am delighted to be back home" Gordon said. "I have been thinking about contributing to Nursing in Antigua for a while; so it is an exciting opportunity to lead this Academic Nursing Program and prepare students to become future leaders of the Nursing Profession. Dr. Gordon started her career in Nursing at the Holberton Hospital, continued in the United Kingdom, then practiced Nursing in New York State.
Gordon received her Bachelor of science degree from Hunter College, New York; Master's degree from New York University, and PhD from Adelphi University, New York. She has extensive experience in all levels of Nursing Education and Nursing Service Administration. In Nursing Service Administration, she served as Director of Nursing, and also served as Associate Administrator for Quality Improvement and Risk Management.
Acknowledging that this Academic Program is not an entity, but global in nature, Gordon will be reaching out and collaborating with local, regional and global experts in Nursing Education and Service to make this program a success. She also plans to utilize theory, practice and research to lay the foundation for Evidenced - Based - Practice.
