Dr. Toni Glover, an associate professor in the School of Nursing at Oakland University, has been selected as a 2024 Fellow by the American Academy of Nursing in recognition of her substantial and sustained impact on health and health care.
Glover and her fellow inductees will be recognized at the Academy’s annual Health Policy Conference, which will take place Oct. 31 – Nov. 2 in Washington, D.C. As a 2024 Fellow, Glover will join a distinguished cohort of nurse leaders representing 37 states, the District of Columbia, Guam, and 14 countries.
“I am honored to be selected for the 2024 class of American Academy of Nursing Fellows, and I look forward to joining my colleagues at the induction ceremony in November,” Glover said.
A researcher, educator, and geriatric nurse practitioner, Glover has over 50 peer reviewed publications in journals such as the Western Journal of Nursing Research, Journal of Nursing Education, American Journal of Hospice and Palliative Medicine, the Clinical Journal of Pain, and Arthritis & Rheumatism.
She is dedicated to sharing primary palliative care knowledge and skills with nursing students and received the OU Women & Philanthropy grant to enhance palliative care education in the undergraduate and graduate curricula at the School of Nursing. In 2020, Glover received the Nightingale Award from the School of Nursing and the Faculty Award in Research from Oakland University.
Glover also serves the community as the Ascension Providence Rochester Hospital (APRH) Endowed Professor, working with nursing leaders and practice partners to enhance opportunities for research and education. She is also a member of the APRH Ethics Committee, the American Nurses Association, the Hospice and Palliative Nurses Association, and Sigma Theta Tau – the international honor society for nursing.
“The OU School of Nursing is proud to extend congratulations to Dr. Glover on this remarkable achievement,” said Dr. Christopher Lance Coleman, dean of OU’s School of Nursing. “Her induction into the American Academy of Nursing is a testament to her outstanding sustained contributions and unwavering commitment to the nursing profession. We are extremely proud of Dr. Glover’s success and look forward to witnessing the continued impact of her work on the broader healthcare community.”
The Academy will host the Induction Ceremony and Soiree on Saturday, Nov. 2. This event is a special tribute to showcase nursing leadership, science, and innovation where colleagues, family, friends, and sponsors can gather together in Washington, D.C. to celebrate the power of nursing to transform health.
“I am thrilled to welcome these impressive nurse leaders into our organization,” said Academy President Linda D. Scott, PhD, RN, NEA-BC, FNAP, FAAN. “With exceptional subject matter expertise, each new Fellow will be vital to achieve the Academy’s mission of improving health and achieving health equity by impacting policy through nursing leadership, innovation, and science.”
