Embrey to Serve on International Governance Committee

January 9, 2020

This past November, during Sigma Theta Tau International (Sigma) 45th Biennial Convention in Washington D.C., Trina Embrey, DNS, RN, was elected to a two-year term on the International Governance Committee. The International Governance Committee is made up of seven members from the international organization’s chapters who reside around the globe. Committee members will oversee bylaws compliance, make recommendations for bylaws changes if needed and oversee member and chapter eligibility issues. 


In addition to Embrey’s role as an assistant professor in the School of Nursing and undergraduate program director for the Nursing program on Georgia Southern University Armstrong Campus, Embrey serves as the President for the Rho Psi Chapter of Sigma Theta Tau International.

During the convention, the Rho Psi Chapter, which includes Georgia Southern University’s Student Chapter, received two Showcase of Regional Excellence Awards for Outstanding Achievement in two areas of the Presidential Call to Action: Collaborate and Connect.

Clinical Internship/Practicum Experience Update

Many of the clinical programs offered by the Waters College of Health Professions require a clinical internship or practicum experience to fulfill degree requirements. Pursuant to the University's legal agreements, participants in clinical experiences are required to abide by the workplace rules of the clinical site. The University is aware of recent federal requirements that would mandate vaccination against COVID-19 for those working in certain settings, including health care. At this time, we expect that these new requirements may significantly impact our ability to locate a placement for students who remain unvaccinated. As always, WCHP will continue to make every effort to place students at clinical sites. However, please be aware that we may be unable to locate a site to accept unvaccinated students, which may cause a delay or inability to progress and complete the program of study.
