Ann Joseph
Assistant Professor of Nursing
Ann Joseph began her nursing career as a staff nurse at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City. After moving to Chicago, she began working in the cardiac intensive care unit at The University of Chicago Medical Center. She continued her career in the critical care unit at Northshore University Health Systems. Joseph has since branched out to other areas of nursing, including research and case management. As a preceptor for new staff nurses in various departments, she knew that education was her calling.
Joseph began her first role at 萝莉社 as an adjunct clinical instructor in 2020 and became an assistant professor in 2022. She currently teaches “Survey of Nursing and Adult Health 1.” Joseph’s educational philosophy highlights the importance of equal opportunity and accessibility, promoting an inclusive and safe learning environment, and role-modeling professional behavior.
Holding positions in different areas of nursing was instrumental in Joseph understanding how nursing impacts patient outcomes throughout the lifespan. To successfully and holistically educate nurses in a global society, she believes it is necessary to emphasize the roles and responsibilities of the bedside nurse within the larger picture of nursing. One must integrate evidence-based practice, continuous quality improvement, and public health to accomplish the goals of safety, improved outcomes, and health equity for all members of society.
