Mildred D. Fennal, PhD, RN Founder and Director


 

The International Nursing Education Consortium  (INEC) was founded by Dr. Mildred D. Fennal in June of 2008. Dr. Fennal is a recently retired Associate Professor of Nursing.

      The Founder earned a Bachelors of Science in Nursing from the State University of New York, a Masters of Science in Critical Care Nursing from the Medical University of South Carolina, and a PhD in Nursing Science from the University of South Carolina.

     Dr. Fennal has thirty eight years of nursing experience. She has held positions from staff nurse to Assistant Manager of Nursing Service in the clinical arena. In academia she started as a Nursing Instructor and reached the level of Associate Professor.

     Dr. Fennal's specialty is critical care nursing. She received national recognition in 2007 for thirty years of continuous certification in critical care nursing.

     A strong advocate of clinical nursing, Dr. Fennal is also known and respected for her knowledge and teaching ability. Most specifically for the promotion of professionalism in nursing.

     Dr. Fennal is a visionary, who was and is perhaps ahead of her time. She is a risk taker and has always been one who reaches for the highest point in any endeavor.

     Being a nurse to the core whether in the clinical setting or in the classroom, she does not accept less than excellence when it concerns nursing.

     It is evident that Dr. Fennal failed retirement. The concept of the International Nursing Education Consortium was constructed very shortly after her retirement.

     According to Dr. Fennal, the program is her retirement project. She should be commended for creating such a program as a retirement project.
