CHICAGO (IL.)—Rasmussen College Regional Dean of Nursing for Illinois and Wisconsin Dr. Sheryl Stogis was interviewed and highlighted in the newly published book titled “Heroic Acts in Humble Shoes. America’s Nurses Tell Their Stories.”

Written by Irene Stemler, the book includes 40 interview-style stories from nursing leaders from around the country. Each story opens with a photograph of the nurse’s shoes and offers unique perspectives on the role of nurses in today’s health care environment.

In her interview, Dr. Stogis offers insights into the longstanding shortage of nurses, the limited opportunities for leadership and the need for nurses to unite to positively influence healthcare reform.

The book also looks to be a springboard for spirited discussion about the future of nursing. The goal is to encourage nurses to act, take leadership positions and benefit healthcare as a whole.
