We love seeing Murrow faculty making an impact beyond the classroom.

What a rewarding experience at the WHCA Fall Conference!

Thanks to the Washington Health Care Association and Education Manager Jennifer Baria for hosting such a wonderful event and inviting me to present two sessions on digital strategy and academic service-learning partnerships.

Spending time with our state's long-term care administrators, nursing directors, and facility leaders was inspiring. From discussing how to reframe social posts with digital dignity to leveraging student PR teams for facility marketing, your engagement and dedication to resident care made these sessions a joy to lead.

Thank you to everyone who joined, shared their operational challenges, and brought so much passion to the room!
