Hooke named American Academy of Nursing fellow

Associate Professor Casey Hooke, PhD, APRN, CPON, PCNS-BC, was selected as a fellow to the American Academy of Nursing. The achievement is considered one of the highest honors in the nursing profession.

Fellow selection criteria include evidence of significant contributions to nursing and health care and selection is based, in part, on the extent the nominee’s nursing career has influenced health policies and the health and well-being of all.

Hooke is a pediatric clinical nurse specialist whose research focus is on children and adolescents with cancer, including symptom management, fatigue and related symptoms, physical performance, and growth and development.

She will be inducted at a ceremony in November and join 24 faculty at the University of Minnesota School of Nursing who have been honored as AAN fellows.
