Transpersonal Nursing as Ontological Artists: Using Healing with the Arts as a Guide Towards Transcendence
With Ruth Simmons, MSN, RN, CLC, CNOR
Ruth Simmons is a self-taught artist and dedicated Nurse with eight years of experience, initially in labor and delivery and currently in a leadership role within the operating room. Residing on an acreage in rural Nebraska, Ruth enjoys nurturing a garden and connecting with her animals. A passionate painter, Ruth works with acrylics and oils to express her creativity. As a PhD student in the Caring Science program at the University of Colorado Anschutz, Ruth collaborated with Dr. Mary Rockwood Lane on an independent study in "Healing with the Arts." This experience deepened Ruth's understanding of Transpersonal Nursing as an ontological artist, focusing on self-healing to enhance compassion for oneself and others. Her ultimate goal is to explore resiliency in Nurses through arts-based research.
