SARA HORTON-DEUTSCH, PhD, RN, FAAN, ANEF, SGAHN, is a Caritas Coach & Leader, Professor, and Director of the University of San Francisco/Kaiser Permanente Partnership at the University of San Francisco School of Nursing and Health Professions. In this role she coordinates an RN-MSN specialty track for nurse leaders working at one of the 21 Kaiser Permanente hospitals in the Bay Area and collaborates with the Kaiser Permanente Scholars Academy to ensure relevant and quality continuing education programming groundedin Unitary Caring Science. She is also a Faculty Associate at the Watson Caring Science Institute, where she serves as the Co-Director of the Caritas Leadership Program, designed to engage participants in deep study and personal mastery of Caritas leadership, guided by Watson's Caring Science literacy and the 10 Caritas Processes.Her work in reflective practice has been published in three co-edited books with Gwen Sherwood: Reflective Practice: Transforming Education and Improving Outcomes (2012 & 2017) and Reflective Organizations: On the Front Lines of QSEN and Reflective Practice Implementation (2015). The second was recognized as an AJN Book of the Year. Clinical nurses and academic programs around the world use the scholarly contributions foundin these books to support deep learning-learning that leads to intentional, effective, and thoughtful action. It was through the iterative process of reflection that Horton-Deutsch deepened her own work in reflective practice, resulting in the integration of Caring Science. Like reflective practice, Caring Science calls healthcare professions to action-sacred actions that honor all living things-to health, healing, and wholeness.In 2022 she co-edited Visionary Leadership in Healthcare: Excellence in Practice, Policy, and Ethics with Holly Wei, which received a first-place AJN Book of the Year Award.The textbook is directed towards those who believe centering care and compassion as the foundation for leadership is a worthy endeavor. It invites readers to explore leadership from a holistic perspective, including the knowledge and skills needed but also the social and emotional literacy required. It guides readers on how to be more self-aware, present, engaged, and connected with others to co-create new ways of being and doing our work together.She continues to influence the scholarship and teaching-learning mindset of nurse educators around the world through her scholarly publications; international, national, and regional presentations; leadership in Caring Science; and service to the profession. She has served as a Research Fellow at the University of South Africa since 2016. In 2022, she was recognized as a Scholar in the Global Academy of Holistic Nursing.
