Personal profile

Research

Research focuses on optimizing nursing care for patients with muscle, bone, and joint injuries and its impact on patient outcomes. My work has involved an in-depth examination of unwarranted variations in care quality and their far-reaching impact on patients and society, along with their correlation to national healthcare reforms. Objectives include investigating tools for personalized care and enhancing nurses' competencies. Additionally, international research is led on developing and evaluating a tool for postoperative observation.  

Cooperation and dissemination

Participation in national and international networks for Fundamentals of Care. Chair of the National Knowledge Center for Orthopedic Nursing (VIDOKS) and Chair of the Danish Interdisciplinary Registry for Proximal Femur Fractures. Member of Research Collaboration for Patient Safety and Quality in Healthcare. Member of Wennberg International Collaborative, an international research network aimed at promoting research into variation in healthcare.

Teaching

My teaching philosophy emphasizes dialogue and research-based learning. I facilitate students' knowledge acquisition and development with the goal of them becoming self-regulated and confident professionals in their field. I teach epidemiological methods, including registry research and methods for quality development and monitoring. I supervise Ph.D. students and occasionally master's students.
