About
I am a registered nurse with special interest in health care ethics, normative ethics, nursing philosophy and nursing science, and nursing education. I have a master’s degree from the University of Oslo, and PhD from Oslo and Akershus University College of Applied Sciences (OsloMet). I wrote both my master thesis and PhD on the topics of value conflicts, care ethics, and partiality in nursing care. In 2017, I published a book, “Partiality and Justice in Nursing Care”, on this topic. I work at the bacherlor’s programme in nursing, and at the master’s degree programme in empowerment and health promotion. I am also the head of the research group Empowerment at OsloMet.
