Organizational Mission The mission of the Honor Society of Nursing, Sigma Theta Tau International, is advancing world health and celebrating nursing excellence in scholarship, leadership, and service. Society Vision Sigma Theta Tau International's vision is to be the global organization of choice for nursing. STTI is you!

President's Note Helping You Achieve Your Professional Goals As we welcome Spring, we are also welcoming new members to Gamma Rho. Our Induction Ceremony and Reception is planned for Wednesday, May 4 th from 2:30 4:00 pm. It will be held in the Health Sciences Education Building Alumni Hall. We invite all members to join in the celebration to recognize future leaders in nursing. Dr. Danielle Pendergrass will be our Keynote speaker.

More information about registration will be sent to you by or you can find it on our Calendar of Events webpage As many of you may know, our baccalaureate program and admission cycle has changed. Students are now admitted in Fall and Spring and continue for four consecutive semesters graduating in December and May. With this change, we will move our annual induction to Fall semester, starting this year to recognize students in the new graduation cycle. Yes, this is a banner year, as we will conduct two inductions. We hope to see you at these ceremonies or one of our other activities for Gamma Rho members. Respectfully, Sue Chase-Cantarini, DNP RN President, STTI Gamma Rho Chapter Susan.chase@nurs.utah.edu (801) Page 1 of 5

2 On May 4 th, the Gamma Rho Chapter of Sigma Theta Tau will be inducting our newest members. To help welcome them, the event will feature keynote speaker Danielle Howa Pendergrass. Pendergrass has a long list of credits to her name including DNP, MSN, WHNP, owner of the Eastern Utah Women s Health, and winner one of the prestigious Breakthrough Leader in Nursing awards from the Robert Woods Jonson Foundation and AARP s Center to Champion Nursing for her role in changing Utah Medicaid rules. From the age of 16, Pendergrass knew she wanted to have a positive impact women s health so she worked her way up through the ranks from CNA to LPN then she went on to receive her BSN at Weber State and her Masters and DNP at the University of Utah. In 2012 she opened her business, Eastern Utah Women s Health, to meet the needs of the local community in and around Price, Utah. She says connecting with other women, knowing that they are all in it together, and that she can have a small positive influence in their lives has been the most rewarding factor for her. Danielle Howa Pendergrass However, Pendergrass s impact goes far beyond Eastern Utah. Her efforts to change Utah s Medicaid rules paved the way for nurse practitioners all over Utah to be able to serve Medicaid patients. Prior to that, nurse practitioners could not be reimbursed by Utah Medicaid and so could not serve that population of patients. Her efforts on this garnered her the Breakthrough award in In addition, Pendergrass has a vision for the future of nursing, both locally and nationally, that can change the face of healthcare. As the nation s largest workforce, some 3 million strong, she says nurses have the power to make their voices heard. With the Affordable Healthcare Act, the nation is rethinking how healthcare is accessed and delivered and nurses have a unique opportunity to be a major player in shaping that future. But in order to do that nurses need to come together and speak as one. Right now, she says nursing groups in Utah exist in silos, individual groups that have little or no interaction with others. She is pushing for a united front, where all nurses in Utah come together to push for common causes. As part of the effort to get nurses voices heard, she also works with the Utah Action Coalition for Health in carrying out the Institute of Medicine s recommendations for nursing, one of which is to get 10 thousand nurses on boards nationally by She says nurses taking more leadership roles; roles on boards, roles on committees, administrative roles in hospitals, and other roles where real impacts can be made will put nurses on the forefront of decision making. She believes the holistic perspective that nurses have makes them some of the best candidates to help create a healthcare system that meets the needs of the future.

3 This quarter s member focus is actually split three ways between three generations. In 2014 Sigma Theta Tau Gamma Rho Chapter inducted Julia Beynon and Katie Tyler. Katie Tyler was a top student graduating from the University of Utah with her BSN. Julia Beynon was a nursing leader at University Hospital. The two were inducted for their individual efforts but they represent a tradition of excellence in nursing not just within the Gamma Rho family but within their own family as well. Beynon and Tyler are mother and daughter. Furthermore, Byenon s mother, and Tyler s grandmother, Carol Bowcutt, was also a proud Gamma Rho member. Carol Bowcutt graduated from the University of Utah in 1961 with a bachelors in nursing. She spent her a 30 year career at the University where she held several leadership roles including nurse manager of the operating room, nurse manager of the rehabilitation unit and finally the last 10 years of her career were spent as the nurse manager of the Clinical Research Center. She also served in the 328th General Hospital Unit of the Utah Army Reserve. She retired from the University in 2002 and Beynon says her mother was proud to be a Gamma Rho member. Julia Beynon was inspired by her mother s career and received her BSN from the University of Utah in She followed in her mother s steps and has built her career at University Hospital where she too has made a name for herself in leadership positions. She currently serves as Clinical Operations Director for Critical Care, Airmed, and Emergency Nursing. Carol Bowcutt Katie Tyler and Julie Beynon Katie Tyler has some big shoes to fill but is well one her way. After graduating in 2014 with a BSN from the University of Utah, she now works as a clinical nurse in the Surgical ICU at the University Hospital. She says she initially didn t think nursing was for her after she spent a day with her mother in 7 th grade and almost passed out in the ICU. But after starting at the University as a business major, she realized all of the women in her life that she admired were nurses, so she changed majors and followed in the footsteps of her mother and grandmother. Bowcutt passed away in 2007, so was not there in April of 2014 to see her daughter and granddaughter inducted to Gamma Rho. Both Beynon and Tyler says they are proud to be part of the tradition that raises the bar and shows commitment to the nursing profession.
