About
Denise Way began her nursing career in 1995 at Frankford School of Nursing knowing it was her calling after taking care of many family members who were ill. After watching her uncles, aunts and father struggle with diabetes and high blood pressure she had to find a way to end this cycle of illness. Way started taking courses at community college and Temple University to see what it would take to become a nurse, but most importantly how to increase the life expectancy of her family members. With the knowledge she gained Way learned about nursing interventions and health promotion and what it means to be a professional nurse—to be knowledgeable, responsible, accountable, caring, patience, compassionate and have empathy. These essentials are necessary to become an expert in nursing. Throughout Way’s nursing career the Nursing Code of Ethics and the American Nurses Association Standard of Nursing has continued to inspire her to grow and learn more about the diverse roles of nursing. She has worked in numerous areas of nursing such as, critical care, step-down unit, telemetry, observation unit and Med-Surg. Way’s current interests continue to be teaching students the importance of nursing and educating and caring for vulnerable adults and elderly clients in various community settings.
