Davidson to serve as national visitor for specialized accreditation in
nursingCOLUMBUS, Miss. -- Dr. Janice Unruh Davidson, professor and
director of the graduate nursing program at Mississippi University
for Women, has been appointed by the National League for Nursing
Accrediting Commission (NLNAC) to begin service as a national visitor for
specialized accreditation in nursing. The NLNAC, an autonomous arm of
the National League for Nursing, seeks to assure quality for the future of
nursing education by serving as the only specialized accrediting agency in
nursing that evaluates both
post-secondary and higher degree programs leading to master’s degree,
baccalaureate degree, associate degree, diploma and practical nursing
preparation. "NLNAC has the historical edge in specialized accreditation
in nursing, having provided such leadership since 1893. Because I have
always advocated for ongoing quality improvement in nursing education, I
am eager to begin serving this historic accrediting agency for all types
of nursing education," Davidson said. "The work that NLNAC has done to
repurpose their accreditation services ultimately translates into better
health care for the public."
