Carolyn ReillyCAROLYN MILLER REILLY, PHD, RN, CHFN, CNE, FAHA, FAAN, has devoted more than 30 years to caring for critically ill and cardiovascular patients, primarily as a clinical nurse specialist. It is from this point of reference that she teaches anything cariac or vaguely related to hemodynamics. Most of Reilly's clinical research centers on promoting self-care in persons suffering from or at risk for cardiovascular disease, including several studies managing self-care and symptoms in persons with heart failure and others in preventing heart disease in cancer survivors. Reilly also has a strong leadership background, serving as a program director in both clinical and academic settings and holding executive leadership appointments in various professional organizations. She has led the Leadership Scholars Program at Emory University since its inception, has previously conducted nursing workforce retention research, is well-published, has served on national writing groups, and serves with editorial boards for several cardiovascular and critical care journals. She recently moved to Berry College in Mt. Berry, Georgia, to lead the Division of Nursing. She is devoted to her children, husband, church, and community and can often be found cheering on her teenagers at sporting events, singing in the church choir, whipping up gourmet meals and drinks, or traveling to experience new cultures and learn new recipes.
