Faculty Features: Katy Lemieux, MSN, RN

Описание: Meet Katy Lemieux, Assistant Professor of Nursing and Director of Nursing in Bushnell University’s Accelerated Bachelor of Science in Nursing (ABSN) program.

Lemieux’s journey into the classroom began with an unexpected phone call and a promise she had made to herself years earlier. After more than a decade of clinical experience as a registered nurse in the Eugene–Springfield community, she found herself called not only to care for patients, but to form the next generation of nurses.

Drawing from experience in emergency care, oncology, endoscopy, day surgery, and hospital supervision, Lemieux approaches teaching with presence, adaptability, and deep respect for her students. She believes nursing education, like patient care, begins with paying attention, meeting people where they are, and growing together in trust and mutual respect.

In this video, Lemieux shares her philosophy of nursing education, the role of faith and compassion in caregiving, and her advice for students navigating the intensity of an accelerated nursing program. She reflects on community, calling, and why, even on the hardest days, she cannot imagine doing anything else.
