University of Alabama at Birmingham School of Nursing second-year Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) student Traci Solt, MSN, FACHE, NEA-BC, CCRN, CCM, recently was named a Fellow of the American College of Healthcare Executives (ACHE). Only an approximate 9,000 healthcare executives hold this distinction, making the designation as a Fellow a top achievement recognizing the highest standard of professional development.
To earn designation as a Fellow, Solt fulfilled multiple requirements, including passing a comprehensive examination, meeting academic and experiential criteria, earning continuing education credits and demonstrating professional and community involvement.
“The health care management field plays a vital role in providing high-quality care to the people in our communities. When nurse leaders like Traci Solt possess a high standard of personal excellence, gain the knowledge and expertise to successfully become an ACHE Fellow and earn the board certification distinction, they demonstrate a commitment to excellence in serving their patients and our communities,” said Lori A. Loan, RN, PhD, FAAN, UAB School of Nursing Associate Professor and Chair of Solt’s DNP committee.
Solt is Director for Clinical Services for the National Veterans Health Administration Office of Primary Care.
