MSN FOCUS
During my studies, I discovered a major lapse in care for women with intellectual disabilities. A lack of individualized care for this patient population drove me to choose to focus my research efforts on ways to improve their care. Through the research I performed within my master's degree, my group and I crafted improved interventions for preventative services for women with intellectual and developmental disabilities. You will find both the final paper and poster linked below.
