Rhea Ferry, DNP
About Me
I am a part-time, assistant professor of graduate nursing students pursuing their DNP degree. I primarily teach a variety of online graduate courses that prepare students for their role as a nurse practitioner including courses such as Nursing Theory, HealthAssessment, Primary Care, Clinical and Health Management, in addition to multiple scholarly project courses.
Why I’m At MaryI started at Mary in 2011 as a part-time faculty member and have been here ever since as it has been a positive working environment that allowed me to continue to practice as an APRN and explore nursing education upon earning my DNP.
