Ann has been described as a ‘training dynamo’ who has worked more to increase the awareness of TB in Mississippi than any other individual. As an example of the training she provides, Ann conducts an average of 78 day-long classroom TB trainings per year and certifies about 2,500 individuals, mostly nurses, per year (that’s over 10,000 people in the last 4 years!). She also strives to make training more accessible and affordable. Recently, she hosted a live online training on ‘TB interviewing basics,’ followed by in-person regional classroom sessions using role play and videotaping of practice interviews for feedback and improvement. She is also responsible for maintaining and updating the TB program manual. These are just a few of the many, many examples of the work Ann does regarding TB education and training.
