Abstract

As epidural and cesarean rates climb, a nurse leader provides a model for effective advocacy for normal birth and supportive care for women and their infants. Dr. Sharron Smith Humenick had a passion and devoted her life to providing women with adequate support for natural, empowering birth and successful breastfeeding. Lessons from her life's work can inspire nurses in our specialty to be tireless and passionate advocates in practice, education, and public policy for supportive nursing care. Dr. Humenick died on September 9, 2006.
