Amanda Hicks RN BScN MPH

Graduate Student, PHN-PREP

I am a PhD student in the School of Nursing at McMaster University, working on the SERENE research project (Supportive, Equity-oriented, Responsive, and Equity-oriented prevention and care model to reduce the incidence and Negative impacts of severe maternal morbidity). My previous research areas have focused on maternal mental health, home visiting, and addressing adverse childhood experiences. I am most interested in comprehensive and collaborative approaches to preventing adverse outcomes for families, especially during the early years.

I hold a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BScN) from McMaster University and a Master of Public Health (Nursing specialization) from Lakehead University. I have spent my nursing career working in maternal/child health (with nearly twenty years in Public Health), and now teach as a sessional instructor in the BScN program at Brock University.
