Biography

My name is Nicki Tate. I graduated from Arkansas State University with my ASN in 2001. At that time, I started working in the emergency room at St. Bernard's. I moved to Texas in 2004 and continued working in the emergency room. I received my BSN through the University of Wisconsin at Green Bay online RN-BSN program in 2006. In 2007, I delved into the world of Infection Prevention as the Infection Prevention Nurse for the hospital that I worked at during that time. In 2011, I obtained my MSN degree from the online program at Benedictine University. I have been certified in Infection Prevention (CIC) since 2010. I recently moved back to Arkansas to be closer to my family.
