The Helen Nahm Research Lecture
Award recognizes a UCSF School of
Nursing faculty member or graduate who
has made an outstanding contribution to
nursing science and research. It honors
the late Helen Nahm, professor emerita
and Dean of the UCSF School of Nursing
from 1958 to 1969. Dr. Nahm passed
away in May 1992.
In her early retirement, Dr. Nahm organized
the directors of schools of nursing
and health care agencies in the San Francisco
area to facilitate the professional
development of the new graduate nurse
and to improve the quality of nursing
care. Her many honors and awards, including
honorary fellowship in the
American Academy of Nursing in 1978,
attest to her leadership in the profession.
Through her research findings and numerous
articles and addresses, Dr. Nahm
shared her ideas and vision with a new
generation of nurses. It is to exemplify
this excellence of scholarship and dedication
of purpose that the Helen Nahm
Research Lecture Award was instituted.
The lectureship was inaugurated in 1981.
