About our author Ginny Wacker Guido, JD, MSN, RN, FAAN, has been active in legal and ethical issues in nursing for all of her professional life. She developed an interest in these areas of nursing while she was teaching undergraduate nursing students in southern Texas, and her excitement for further knowledge and understanding of these content areas encouraged her to pursue a Doctor of Jurisprudence degree and attend multiple ethical conferences. Over her career, she continued to attend national and regional workshops and conferences, updating and expanding her knowledge base regarding both the legal and ethical aspects of professional nursing practice. Dr. Guido has authored numerous publications and presented conferences and lectures on legal and ethical issues in nursing, with special emphasis on a variety of clinical practice settings. In addition to publishing seven editions of Legal and Ethical Issues in Nursing, she also edited a textbook on nursing care at the end of life. She remained active in nursing education until her retirement from Washington State University, Vancouver, in May 2014.
