Kimberly Mullins , DNP,AGPC-NP,AOCNP

I am a DNP (Doctor of Nursing Practice) prepared, adult nurse practitioner (NP) with 30+ years of clinical practice experience committed to excellence in patient care and evidence-based practice. My NP certification is in adult primary care and I have achieved additional advanced certification in oncology practice. I am Chair of the Advanced Practice Department (APD), program director for the Adult Gero Primary Care (AGPC) NP programs, and an Associate Professor teaching graduate and doctoral level nursing students while I continue my clinical practice in radiation oncology. As Chair of the APD, I  oversee 11 advanced practice programs assisting the program directors with recruitment, admissions,  and curricula. I lead all faculty in these programs providing support and mentoring, and manage administrative duties. In my role as faculty and program director, I serve as a resource and faculty advisor for all students enrolled in this program. I also serve as the Chair for DNP Student Project Committees. In addition to clinical practice, teaching, and service, I am committed to the scholarship of nursing. I have collaborated with several colleagues to produce peer reviewed published works and have been an invited speaker at national conferences. In my clinical position I am a Senior NP. I conduct new and follow up visits, as well as manage side effects of those patients actively receiving treatment. In this role I function both independently and collaboratively with a Radiation Oncologist. Maintaining the high standards required of advanced oncology certification benefits my clinical practice as well as my teaching.
