Ms. Summers is the co-author of Saving Lives: Why the Media's Portrayal of Nursing Puts Us All at Risk. Her media advocacy work began when she and fellow Johns Hopkins graduate students began the movement in April 2001. (More on our history page.)

She speaks frequently on nursing's image and empowering nurses to change how they are perceived. Sandy has helped Florida remove negative images of nurses in TV car ads and 

Come hear her in person discuss how you can become a true advocate for the patients and elevate our profession!   Sandy is co-author of Saving Lives: Why the Media's Portrayal of Nursing Puts Us All at Risk. She runs this amazing non-profit (www.truthaboutnursing.org) which is a great resource for understanding and countering popular perceptions of nursing in the media. This is powerful information to use to counter misinformation about NPs and challenge the lack of inclusion of NPs in public service roles and committees to improve Healthcare for all especially in Florida.
