Dr. Camp has been a registered nurse for 46 years. She has worked at bedside in CVICU, MSICU, and NICU with adult patients. In addition, she has served as house supervisor, nurse executive, and Executive Director of the Georgia Board of Nursing. She has also worked in a defense medical malpractice law firm, was licensed to practice in Georgia and Utah and reviewed over 150 medical and nursing negligence cases. In 2010, Dr. Camp returned to her “first love” and that was to teach in nursing education. While functioning as a clinical instructor, she completed her Masters in Nursing as a family nurse practitioner (FNP-C), and then was employed as full time faculty teaching patho-pharmacology, and teaching at the BSN and MSN level in an adult-gerontological nurse practitioner program. While functioning in that role she completed her DNP and achieved tenure and promotion to Associate Professor. She also worked as a FNP at the First Choice Primary Care which is a federally qualified healthcare clinic. In the Fall of 2021, upon relocating to the North Georgia mountains secondary to husband’s retirement, she joined UNG nursing faculty to teach in the graduate program. She has two married daughters that have given her four grandchildren (not partial at all) that have given her great joy. She has been married to the same man (lawyer/judge) for 46 years.
