I am Professor Emeritus of Nursing at the School of Health and Welfare.
I have a degree in nursing and was made Professor in 2009.
I have held positions at Dalarna University; Örebro University; and at the University of Alberta, Canada.
I have served on the steering committee for the Swedish National Health Care Sciences Post-graduate School; on the board of the Centre for Clinical Research in Dalarna; the Swedish Society of Nursing; and on Dalarna University Governing Board. I am currently the chair of the Scientific Advisory Committee at the Swedish Agency for Health Technology Assessment and Assessment of Social Services, vice chair of the board of the Swedish Red Cross University and member of the Higher Education Appeals Board.
I teach on both the undergraduate and doctoral programmes.
I am the editor and author of several textbooks (in Swedish) about nursing: Omvårdnadens grunder; Omvårdnad på avancerad nivå: Kärnkompetenser inom sjuksköterskans specialistområden; and VIPS-boken: Välbefinnande, integritet, prevention, säkerhet.
My research areas are clinical decision-making and evidence-based practice in nursing; nursing informatics; and patient safety, with a specialisation in the care of older people in emergency care.
