Véronique de Goumoëns, RN, MSN, CNS, is a PhD candidate in nursing sciences at the University of Lausanne in Switzerland. Her dissertation focuses on the development of family nursing assessment and intervention for acquired brain injury, including the early phase of hospitalization. In partnership with families and healthcare professionals, she developed a new evidence-based intervention based on Family Nursing Systems Theory, named SAFIRÓ. The intervention is currently being tested in a feasibility study in the clinical department of neurosciences at the Lausanne University Hospital, Switzerland.
She contributes to the Family Nursing curriculum development for Bachelor and Master nursing Students, at the HES-SO University of Applied Sciences and Arts Western Switzerland and the Institute for Higher Education and Research in Healthcare (Faculty of Biology and Medicine, University of Lausanne), respectively. Integrating “Family Nursing” and “Patient and Family Centered-Care“ approaches, her teaching focuses on the development of student’s competencies in the care of families. Her involvement in clinical practice, research, and teaching enable her to contribute to the development of Family Nursing in the context of French-speaking Switzerland.
