Tiersa Pialet
comes from a
military family.
When a knee
injury cut her
time in the Air
Force short, she
found another way
to serve.
She's in CU Nursing's DNP-VHMC program
and works with several military and veteran
hospitals in Colorado. Her capstone project
is finding a way to streamline and speed
up the referral system, allowing patients to
get better access to care. An issue that has
become even more critical with the aftermath
of the pandemic.
" Without these resources, patients could get a
diagnosis or treatment later than they should.
So the end goal is that safe transition of
patient care, " she says.
Pialet credits her time at CU Nursing for
advancing her career and teaching her the
best ways to help veterans and service
members.
" It's a huge benefit to be able to give back
to veterans, " she says. " I appreciate the
knowledge I've gained through CU Nursing's
VMHC program, and now I can take that
knowledge and educate other
healthcare professionals and
patients. " SCAN THE QR CODE TO READ
