WHO'S WHO OF NURSING EDITORS
 |
Sandra M. Nettina, MSN, APRN, BC, ANP Editor, Medscape’s Topics in Advanced Practice Nursing ejournal, From 2001 Prior Editor’s Position: Primary Care Practice, 1997-1999 Years as Editor: Since 1996 Years in INANE: Since 1996 Other Position: Nurse Practitioner, Columbia Medical Practice Columbia, MD Accomplishment: I created the bimonthly journal, Primary Care Practice, from scratch, then the Medscape ejournal from scratch. Best: Making my own schedule and pulling knowledge and resources from my entire career as a nurse. Worst: Authors who don’t know how to reference Amusing: People are always coming up with stories about why they haven’t met a deadline. Years ago, before the computer was routine, an author said that her manuscript was in the car, on the way to a picnic and there was a minor car accident. The potato salad landed all over her manuscript. Therefore, she couldn’t salvage any of it (the manuscript). 3 words: Organized, enthusiastic, hard-working Strangest request: Many have requested that we consider something for publication that is being considered or has been accepted elsewhere. I can’t see why people don’t get the copyright thing. If not editor?: I would love to volunteer more Relax?: I love being outside doing anything—gardening, horseback riding, mucking out the barn, running |
