Introduction
Although the COVID-19 pandemic placed limitations on the nurse anesthesia program’s ability to celebrate National Nurse Anesthesia Week, that did not stop the students from serving their community. The Nurse Anesthesia-DNP class of 2022 recently held a sock drive through their professional aspects course. Socks are an overlooked yet essential necessity for our community facing financial disparities. The nurse anesthesia students and faculty were eager to meet the needs of their community and donated over 100 pairs of women’s, men’s, and children’s socks to The Durham Rescue Mission.
The Office for Faculty Advancement has awarded seed grants to 14 faculty-led projects, including three associated with DUSON, exploring new ideas and expanding existing initiatives to promote an equitable and inclusive academic environment at Duke.
