Abstract

Amy Brown began her nursing career at the University of Iowa with a bachelor of science in nursing (BSN) (which included studying in London) and a master of science (MS) in nursing administration from the University of Illinois at Chicago. She chose to start her nursing career at the Mayo Medical Center in Rochester, Minnesota, because of its sterling reputation for patient care quality. The experience of serving on shared-governance councils with such a prestigious and complex health system jumpstarted her interest in leadership as a career. Amy next decided to work as a traveling registered nurse (RN) so she could determine what was so special about Mayo and why there was such a disparity between nursing care environments. Today Amy serves at the Director of Inpatient Surgical Services for Exempla St. Joseph Hospital in Denver, Colorado, and is an affiliate faculty member at Colorado Christian University.
