Our guest on this episode is Dr. Darlene Acorda who joins us to discuss Children with Medical Complexities.
Dr. Darlene Acorda is a Clinical Specialist in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit at Texas Children’s Hospital and a pediatric nurse practitioner in the community. She is also an adjunct faculty in the undergraduate program at the University of Texas Cizik School of Nursing and currently serves as the chair of the Clinical Practice and Research Committee of the Society of Pediatric Nurses. Her research focuses on the experience of children with medical complexity and their caregivers, especially those who are tracheostomy and ventilator dependent. She has received funding support from the Society for Simulation in Healthcare to explore how family caregivers perceive the use of high-fidelity simulation in learning tracheostomy emergency management. She also received funding from Sigma Theta Tau Zeta Pi Chapter to examine the challenges of caring for a child with medical complexity during a global pandemic. Her other research interest is in minimizing pediatric health disparities, improving the rapid response of critically ill children, increasing cultural competence in care, and merging research and quality improvement methods to implement interventions with a positive, sustained impact on the care of hospitalized children.
