Dr. Bugel holds a PhD in Nursing from Seton Hall University, an MA in Nursing from New York University, and a BSN from Seton Hall University. She is certified as a Clinical Nurse Leader and in Nursing Education. Dr. Bugel received the 2013 dissertation award from Sigma Theta Tau International (nursing honor society) for her study: “A Phenomenological Study of The Experience of Being a Well School-age Sibling of a Child with a Traumatic Injury.” At the request of the National Alliance for Grieving Children (NAGC), she authored evidence-based guidelines for families and siblings regarding the loss of a child in the family, which was based on her dissertation. She participated as a site facilitator in a funded 4-site knowledge translation study guiding staff in the use of evidence for reducing the risk of infection of shared non-critical patient equipment.
