She holds national certification as an Ambulatory Women's Health Care Nurse through the National Certification Corporation.Loversidge educated undergraduate and graduate students in the areas of health policy and regulation, evidence-based practice, and leadership in nurs- ing and healthcare for almost 20 years. She has extensive experience in the regulatory setting, having held two positions at the Ohio Board of Nursing (OBN). The first was as the Associate Executive Director and included the role of government liaison. In that position, she had a significant role in drafting and passing a major revision to the Ohio Nurse Practice Act; once that law passed, she also had a role in drafting the regulations needed to enforce that law. After a decade in practice and administrative settings, she served the OBN again as its Education Consultant, with responsibility for oversight of all Ohio prelicensure nursing education programs. While at OBN, she served on National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) committees, includ- ing the Committee on Special Projects, responsible for transformation of thepaper-and-pencil NCLEX licensure examination to a computer adaptive mode. She was awarded Fellowship in the National League for Nursing (NLN) Acad- emy of Nursing Education based on her contributions to public health policy in nursing regulation and nursing education, and she currently serves on the National League for Nursing Public Policy Committee.Loversidge has authored numerous textbook chapters on regulation, health policy, and advocacy. She is the author of the evidence-informed health policy model that forms the basis of the model used in this book. Her scholarship interests focus on health policy; advances in health professions education; and practice models that focus on improvements in quality, safety, and top-of- license practice. Joyce Zurmehly, PhD, DNP, RN, NEA-BC, ANEF, FAAN, is a Clinical Profes- sor of Nursing at The Ohio State University College of Nursing. Zurmehly be- gan a nursing career in 1976 as an OR nurse after completing licensed practical nurse training. Her registered nurse career began in 1981, working as a medical- surgical nurse. She has earned a BSN and MSN and is continually engaged in lifelong learning, as evidenced by two doctoral degrees, involvement in regula- tory activities, presentation of scholarship at numerous venues, and publications in refereed journals. Zurmehly has earned the rank of full Professor of Clinical Nursing at The Ohio State University and was inducted into Fellowship in the NLN Academy of Nursing Education (ANEF) and American Academy of Nurs- ing (FAAN).Zurmehly has experience in policy and regulation through her work for the Ohio Board of Nursing (OBN) and the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN). She is recognized for academic leadership in advancing nursing education through her work as a faculty scholar and nurse regulator. Zurmehly has been educating undergraduate and graduate students for almost 30 years. She has been influential in shaping undergraduate and graduate nurs- ing education. Zurmehly's primary contribution to nursing education has been collaborating with state and national experts to set enduring nursing education policy by promulgating administrative rules.Because of her expertise in the regulation of nursing programs, Zurmehly has been appointed to national committees, where she actively participated in developing policy in the regulation of nursing programs. She collaborated with the National Council of State Boards of Nursing and broke new ground in nursing regulation by developing recommendations that promote collabo- ration with educators on fostering nursing education innovations. As partof this work, a model of the regulatory influences on nursing education was developed, and many have adopted these model education rules, thus posi- tively impacting nursing education nationally and internationally. She was also involved in the Transition to Practice program development at the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN), in which multiple perspectives were addressed to provide a comprehensive Transition to Practice program
"""The new edition of Evidence-Informed Health Policy serves as a foundation for policymaking using an evidence-informed model with emphasis on the fact that the best policy is based on evidence. Readers will develop a stronger understanding of the policymaking process, with chapters devoted to actionable strategies using familiar language. The second edition helps transform doctoral students into healthcare advocates who can work collaboratively throughout the policymaking process, preparing them to engage at any policy level in shaping the future of nursing."" -Keeley Harding, DNP, APRN, CNS, CPNP-AC/PC; and Beverly Hittle, PhD, RN Assistant Professors and Course Faculty Leaders for Combined DNP-PhD Health PolicyUniversity of Cincinnati ""The second edition of Evidence-Informed Health Policy continues to bridge the gap between evidence-based practice and health policymaking. Drs. Loversidge & Zurmehly introduce contemporary perspectives on the use of evidence to inform health policy decision-making with their new visual representation of the evidence-informed health policy model. The authors provide astute exemplars and lessons learned from COVID-19, which are integrated throughout the textbook. This book is an essential resource for nurses and healthcare professionals who are engaged or interested in influencing health policy and navigating complex health policy environments."" -Jacalyn Buck, PhD, RN, NEA-BC, FAONLClinical Professor Director, DNP Executive TrackThe Ohio State University College of Nursing ""I enthusiastically endorse the second edition of Loversidge and Zurmehly's excellent book on evidence-informed health policy. I required the first edition for a course I taught in NCSBN's International Center for Regulatory Scholarship (ICRS) program. Our ICRS program is for leaders worldwide who want to learn, network, and realize their leadership potential. My course was about the role of the education consultant at boards of nursing, and this book provided them with a perfect background in policy, particularly in how governmental structures drive the process. For example, one of my students' required papers was to write testimony on an educational issue they are dealing with at their boards of nursing. For this paper, the student used the section in the book on providing testimony, as it took them through the steps. My students loved the book because there are few books available that integrate regulation and policy. The second edition has some wonderful additions, including a discussion of policy les- sons learned during the pandemic, a graphic illustration of the EIHP model, and a new chapter on global health policy. I look forward to using the second edition of this book in my new ICRS course."" -Nancy Spector, PhD, RN, FAAN Director of Nursing EducationNational Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) ""This second edition of Evidence-Informed Health Policy includes information about lessons learned from COVID as well as a discussion of global health policy by a contributing author. This new edition is a valuable resource for those nurses wanting to learn more about evidence-informed health policy, development of such policies, as well as the importance of nurse participation in their development. Such participation could contribute to a shared nursing agenda as recommended in the RWJF consensus report Nursing 2020-2030."" -Jane F. Mahowald, MA, BSN, RN, ANEF Immediate past Executive Director of the Ohio League for Nursing"
