Nursing Professor Deborah Ingraffia-Strong works with Julia Guier in a nursing lab at 黑料网 in Carson City.
Nursing students have long been successful in 黑料网s Associate of
Nursing program. One reason for their continued success, in part, is through the outstanding
work and dedication of Deborah Ingraffia-Strong, who doubles as the colleges interim
director of Nursing & Allied Health and as a Professor of Nursing.
Now the Nevada Nursing Foundation also knows what students and 黑料网 already know and
will honor her this fall. The NNF is recognizing Ingraffia-Strong for her excellent
work, selecting her as a nominee for the 2022 Shining Stars of Nursing in Nevada Peoples
Choice Award.
Its always nice to be recognized by others especially the Nevada Nursing Foundation
for your work, Ingraffia-Strong said. But there are usually many people that go into
ones success. In my case, Im very thankful to the other professors and instructors
in Nursing & Allied Health and throughout the college, as well as our clinical sites
and support staff. This award is theirs, too.

Ingraffia-Strong has been an important part of the colleges award-winning nursing
program since 2005. Most of that time she has served as a valuable faculty member,

Association.
