A career in compassion
How Cindy Lefton, RN, Ph.D., brings nursing and organizational psychology together to create a more caring healthcare system
Jessica Lefton
Everyone knows there are only 24 hours in a day, but after reading the resume of Cindy Lefton, RN, Ph.D., it is easy to assume she has found a loophole. On an average day, you might find Cindy in her office at Psychological Associates, where she works as VP of Organizational Consulting. But you are just as likely to find her working at the Barnes-Jewish Hospital Emergency Department, where she serves as a Waiting Room Nurse. And don’t forget her roles as an associate editor for the Journal of Emergency Nursing, or pro bono Patient Experience Director at The DAISY Foundation™. 20 Lead Up for Women
