Beck champions DNP education and geriatric care
Gerontological nursing never gets old for Maureen S. Beck, DNP, GNP-BC.
Beck earned her Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) from UTHealth Houston in 1992 as one of the first graduates from what was then the geriatric nurse practitioner program. She later came back for a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) degree and a post-master’s certificate in nursing education.
Today, Beck wears several hats as an assistant professor at McGovern Medical School at UTHealth Houston, a health care provider with UT Physicians, and a committed preceptor to Cizik School of Nursing at UTHealth Houston students.
