Dr. David W. Woodruff, Ph.D., APRN, NPD-BC, CNE, CNE-cl, CCRN, FNAP

With over 30 years of experience in nursing education and clinical practice, I am dedicated to advancing nursing through innovative teaching and rigorous research. My journey from bedside nursing to academia has equipped me with a unique perspective that bridges theory and practice.

As an educator, I've progressed from instructor to professor, teaching critical care, research methods, and pathophysiology. My research focuses on improving nursing education and practice, particularly in new graduate nurse communication skills and innovative teaching methodologies.

I actively contribute to the nursing community through leadership roles in professional organizations, numerous publications, and a commitment to evidence-based practice. As a National Academies of Practice Fellow, a recognition that underscores my dedication to advancing interprofessional healthcare, I'm committed to making a significant impact in the field of nursing.

My goal is to inspire the next generation of nurses while pushing the boundaries of nursing knowledge through innovative research and collaboration. I remain committed to lifelong learning and staying at the forefront of nursing education and practice development.
