Description: Department Of Nursing Faculty Employment Opportunity Job no: 532825 Work type: Instructional Faculty - Tenured/Tenure-Track Location: Sonoma Categories: Tenure-Track, Full Time, Instructional Faculty - Unit 3 CFA - California Faculty Association Department of Nursing (Tenure-Track) Assistant or Associate Professor depending on experience in teaching in higher education. Start date August 2024 Our Commitment Guided by our core values of diversity, sustainability, community engagement, and adaptability, Sonoma State University offers an exceptional educational experience that fosters intellectual, social, and personal growth. As the only member of the Council of Public Liberal Arts Colleges in California, we are uniquely positioned to foster ethical exploration, civic engagement, social responsibility, and global awareness combined with a solid foundation in an academic discipline. We have a strong commitment to graduating students who have the ability to think critically and communicate effectively in an ever-changing world. The unique campus culture fosters our Seawolf Commitment to integrity, respect, excellence, and responsibility and is integrated into all campus life. We nurture inclusive excellence through a celebration of the rich diversity of our local communities and our interconnected global economy. Members of the University community are expected to work effectively with faculty, staff, and students from diverse ethnic, cultural, and socioeconomic backgrounds. We are fully committed to the rights of students, staff and faculty with disabilities in accordance with applicable state and federal laws. SSU is especially interested in candidates who make contributions to equity and inclusion in the pursuit of excellence in teaching, scholarship, and service. The University Sonoma State University’s beautiful 274-acre campus is located in Sonoma County wine country, an hour north of San Francisco. The campus offers the ideal setting for teaching and learning and access to a community of rich cultural, environmental, and recreational opportunities. Founded in 1960, Sonoma State University is one of the 23 campuses of the California State University System. As members of the largest public higher educational system in the nation, we provide accessible, high quality education to more than 9,000 students. Sonoma State University is proud to be a Hispanic Serving Institution committed to achieving the goals of equal opportunity and endeavors to employ faculty and staff reflecting the ethnic and cultural diversity of the region and state. Faculty Responsibilities In addition to teaching and scholarship, faculty are expected to engage in service to the department, school, and community, and must be a California state resident during time of employment . Sonoma State is committed to the Teacher/Scholar model and places an emphasis on faculty support of undergraduate research and professional opportunities for students. Faculty are also encouraged to participate in our distinctive curriculum across our three programs and to foster our commitment to the CSU Graduation Initiative 2025 through excellent teaching, advising, and mentoring. Potential applicants are encouraged to review the University’s Reappointment, Tenure and Promotion Policy . Aligned with the California Faculty Association Collective Bargaining Agreement, during the first 2 years of the probationary period the instructional assignment will be reduced by 2 courses per academic year. All faculty are required to have the ability to work effectively in a multicultural environment. The Department As we surpass our 50 th year educating nurses in this community, we are proud to be acknowledged in the top 10 Nursing programs in the country. The Department offers a variety of campus-based programs, fully accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE) and approved by the California State Board of Registered Nursing (BRN). These include a traditional pre-licensure BSN, post-licensure BSN, and Family Nurse Practitioner-MSN, requiring a full spectrum of teaching content and expertise across multiple modalities. Students are educated to practice in a variety of settings including community health agencies, advanced practice settings, and acute care settings, with focus on underserved communities. Active community partnerships support consistent clinical rotation sites for students, and offer additional service-learning opportunities, yielding mutually beneficial experiences for agency, student, and faculty. The faculty in the Department of Nursing have collaboratively identified and defined our collective core values that guide our nursing philosophy and pedagogy. Integrity Integrity is essential to every aspect of professional nursing that faculty believe includes upholding principles and standards, truth telling, humility, honesty, and veracity. Additionally, integrity includes adherence to the American Nurses Association Code of Ethics concepts of sincerity, authenticity, taking responsibility for actions, living in accordance with one’s principles, trustworthiness, and consistency of values, actions, and outcomes. These principles are demonstrated when one chooses to do the right thing when no one is looking, regardless of recognition. Love The application of Dr. Jean Watson’s theory is demonstrated as the practice of loving kindness (Watson, 2018). Love reduces separation and builds connection between people (Adib-Hajbaghery & Bolandian Bafghi, 2020). “Love, as an aspect of human care, means respect for kindness, self-esteem, dignity, and human values” (Adib-Hajbaghery & Bolandian Bafghi, 2020, para. 3). Love is actualized by demonstrating compassion, empathy, respect, humility, and generosity. Equity Equity requires unencumbered access and elimination of barriers, leading to optimal outcomes and health justice. “Equitable care aims to provide the entire population with safe, efficient, and reliable nursing services at all levels of health” (Rooddehghan, ParsaYekta, & Nasrabadi, 2019, p. 598). Faculty are committed to dismantling systemic oppression and share Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s dream of “equality of opportunity, of privilege and property widely distributed; a dream of a land where [we] will not take necessities from the many to give luxuries to the few” (King Jr., 1961 as cited by UNAC - HCP). Accountability Accountability is taking responsibility for choices, acknowledging autonomy of nursing and all actions taken in practice. As licensed practitioners, nurses have the responsibility to adhere to standards of care. Nurses must recognize their personal and professional power and understand the universal impact of their actions and decisions. Faculty create and support a system of just culture in educational and clinical practice environments. Part of following ethical conduct requires a nurse to be answerable to self and others for their actions. Courage Courageous practice is acting on one’s values to assure just outcomes. This includes speaking the truth, not being a passive bystander, and having moral courage to advocate for safety, equity, and quality across healthcare roles and structures. Nurses demonstrate courage by managing conflict with skill and respect, and maintaining an active engagement in the care of our patients and the environments in which we work. Interactions across disciplines and dynamic reflection of personal and professional values uphold excellence and counter all forms of injustice and discrimination. Reflexivity “Critical reflexivity is personal analysis that involves challenging” individual beliefs and assumptions to improve practice (Timmins, 2006, p.49). This allows for continuous improvement, growth, and authenticity, which includes examining values, feelings, thoughts, reactions, and motives (Nairn et al, 2012). In order to advance optimal health and educational outcomes, faculty practice and promote reflexivity through a process of shared wisdom and perspective-taking. A small and dedicated team of professionals, the Nursing faculty have co-created a collegial and collaborative culture where individuals are invited and expected to contribute in the identification and achievement of department goals and activities. With a focus on diversity, equity, and inclusivity, curriculum and policies are frequently reviewed and updated to reflect a strong social justice lens. Faculty are supported to develop skills in working across all teaching modalities from clinical and laboratory settings, to lecture and student engagement in both face-to-face and online settings. Opportunities for leadership and growth among faculty are available in a variety of areas, and mentoring is actively offered and encouraged.

Experience is desired in various educational modalities, including face-to-face, hybrid, and online formats.

The successful candidate will provide evidence of scholarship that reflects a particular research focus and area of interest.

Faculty are committed to dismantling systemic oppression and share Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s dream of “equality of opportunity, of privilege and property widely distributed; a dream of a land where [we] will not take necessities from the many to give luxuries to the few” (King Jr., 1961 as cited by UNAC - HCP). Accountability Accountability is taking responsibility for choices, acknowledging autonomy of nursing and all actions taken in practice. As licensed practitioners, nurses have the responsibility to adhere to standards of care. Nurses must recognize their personal and professional power and understand the universal impact of their actions and decisions. Faculty create and support a system of just culture in educational and clinical practice environments. Part of following ethical conduct requires a nurse to be answerable to self and others for their actions. Courage Courageous practice is acting on one’s values to assure just outcomes. This includes speaking the truth, not being a passive bystander, and having moral courage to advocate for safety, equity, and quality across healthcare roles and structures. Nurses demonstrate courage by managing conflict with skill and respect, and maintaining an active engagement in the care of our patients and the environments in which we work. Interactions across disciplines and dynamic reflection of personal and professional values uphold excellence and counter all forms of injustice and discrimination. Reflexivity “Critical reflexivity is personal analysis that involves challenging” individual beliefs and assumptions to improve practice (Timmins, 2006, p.49). This allows for continuous improvement, growth, and authenticity, which includes examining values, feelings, thoughts, reactions, and motives (Nairn et al, 2012). In order to advance optimal health and educational outcomes, faculty practice and promote reflexivity through a process of shared wisdom and perspective-taking. A small and dedicated team of professionals, the Nursing faculty have co-created a collegial and collaborative culture where individuals are invited and expected to contribute in the identification and achievement of department goals and activities. With a focus on diversity, equity, and inclusivity, curriculum and policies are frequently reviewed and updated to reflect a strong social justice lens. Faculty are supported to develop skills in working across all teaching modalities from clinical and laboratory settings, to lecture and student engagement in both face-to-face and online settings.
