Knowledge is important. But knowing what to do when it matters most can make all the difference.

Throughout my career in emergency nursing, disaster response, public health, and healthcare education, I have witnessed firsthand how quickly situations can change and how important it is for healthcare professionals to be prepared for the unexpected.

Whether responding to an infectious disease outbreak, managing a mass casualty incident, caring for vulnerable populations, or navigating the challenges of a disaster, preparedness requires more than having a plan. It requires education, critical thinking, confidence, and the ability to translate knowledge into action.

That is one of the reasons I created Adventures with Nurse Jamla®.

My goal has always been to make education accessible, practical, and relevant to the challenges healthcare professionals face, whether they work in a hospital, community setting, public health agency, educational institution, or disaster response organization.

Continuing Education That Goes Beyond the Basics

Through Adventures with Nurse Jamla®, I offer educational opportunities focused on disaster preparedness, emergency response, public health, and the needs of populations who may be disproportionately affected during emergencies.

Course topics include areas such as:

• Disaster nursing and emergency preparedness
• Public health and disaster response
• Pediatric considerations during disasters
• Industrial accidents and hazardous incidents
• Climate change and its impact on health
• Risk communication
• Vulnerable populations and health equity
• Ethical considerations in disaster response

These topics are not limited to professionals who deploy to disasters. They are relevant to anyone who may be called upon to care for patients, support communities, communicate risks, or maintain essential healthcare services during an emergency.

Why Continuing Education Matters

One lesson I have learned throughout my career is that having resources available does not necessarily mean they are accessible, familiar, or that someone is competent in using them.

The same principle applies to education.

Completing a course is one step. Understanding how to apply that knowledge in an unpredictable environment is another.

Preparedness is not something we achieve once and then forget. It requires continuous learning, reassessment, and a willingness to recognize where we can improve.

And preparedness is everyone’s responsibility, not just that of emergency managers or disaster response teams.

Education and Training for Your Organization

In addition to online continuing education, Adventures with Nurse Jamla® can support organizations seeking educational presentations, customized training, and professional development opportunities.

Whether you are planning a staff education session, conference, workshop, or preparedness initiative, I welcome opportunities to collaborate on training that addresses your organization’s needs.

My approach draws upon more than two decades of clinical nursing experience, public health service, disaster response, and healthcare leadership, with an emphasis on making complex topics understandable and applicable to practice.

Invest in Your Knowledge. Strengthen Your Preparedness.

I believe education should do more than satisfy a professional requirement. It should challenge us to think differently, recognize gaps in our preparedness, and become better equipped to serve the people and communities who depend on us.

Whether you are an experienced emergency nurse, a student, a public health professional, an educator, or someone looking to expand your understanding of disaster preparedness, I invite you to explore the educational opportunities available through Adventures with Nurse Jamla®.

Because when an emergency happens, the time to begin learning should not be the moment we are expected to respond.
