Biography
My name is Kelly Samolis; I grew up in the northern tip of the Adirondack park loving the outdoors since I could explore them. I entered the healthcare field young at age 16 years old as a Clinical Nursing assistant. I worked with elderly throughout nursing school. After graduating from Clinton Community College in 2013, with my Associates of Nursing Degree I began my acute care experience. I obtained my Bachelors degree of science in nursing; here I took a class called Nursing Research. I graduated from Plattsburgh State University in 2014. I eagerly joined to be a Felis scholar, this was a program my facility offered to guide nurses in developing and researching a topic of their choice. This program has opened doors in nursing research since joining I have presented in nursing research symposiums and educated multiple staff on my research program. Currently I am working on publishing a nursing journal article on this topic to educate healthcare staff on opiate use disorder.
