Dr. Pamela B. de Cordova’s research includes studying nursing workforce characteristics (i.e., educational preparation, nurse experience, and skill mix) and how these characteristics are associated with quality care. She also examines staffing and work environmental factors that can impact patient outcomes. Her research trajectory focuses on improving patient safety in acute care hospitals.
In 2016, Dr. de Cordova received a K08 Mentored Clinical Scientist Research Career Award from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality to evaluate public reporting staffing policies aimed at improving patient safety in acute care hospitals.
Dr. de Cordova obtained her PhD from Columbia University School of Nursing in 2011 and completed a post-doctoral fellowship at the Center for Health Outcomes and Policy Research in 2013.
