Dr. Kerri Schuiling, PhD, NP emeritus, CNM (ret), FACNM, FAAN, was introduced to nursing at an early age. She was close to her maternal grandmother, who was a nurse and a social worker. Dr. Schuiling recalls her grandmother talking about caring for area families, particularly those living in poverty. She always spoke about the importance of supporting families and how by doing so it made the world a better place. “As long as I can remember, I always wanted to be a nurse,” Dr. Schuiling said.
