Mona Sawhney
I was born in Toronto Ontario to immigrant parents. I am a PhD prepared Nurse Practitioner. My doctoral studies focused on managing pain in patients undergoing day surgery. My research to date has focused on developing evidenced based knowledge regarding the safe and effective management of acute and chronic pain, outcomes associated with Advanced Practice Nursing (Nurse Practitioner and Clinical Nurse Specialist outcomes), infection prevention and control, and anti-oppression/anti-racism in educational settings and healthcare. My evolving research program includes both funded and unfunded projects, with my most recent projects falling under my research lab ‘Addressing Culturally based Hidden bias And Racism [A-CHARM]’. I was drawn to the Cultural studies program as I feel I need to expand my thinking as I continue to research issues associated with racism in healthcare.
