Dr. Kramer-Jackman joined the KU School of Nursing as a part-time clinical assistant professor in 2007 and started a full-time teaching position Fall 2008.

Her work experience includes a position as family nurse practitioner for a retail clinic, where she diagnosed and treated common family illnesses for patients over 18 months of age. In addition to her health care duties, she autonomously ran the business aspects of the clinic. Dr. Kramer-Jackman also has experience as a critical care nurse where she treated trauma patients and critically ill patients.

During her doctoral studies at the University of Kansas, Dr. Kramer-Jackman was a graduate teaching assistant for a number of different courses and for the nursing skills lab. In the lab, she assisted students with hands-on demonstrations of nursing technical skills, taught rationale and evaluated students for competency.

From Sept. 10 – 22, 2004, Dr. Kramer-Jackman completed an internship with the Pan-American Health Organization (PAHO). During this internship, she helped develop criteria for selecting proposals for an indigenous populations grant, helped select journal articles for publication in the PAHO journal, helped develop a Web site for nursing and midwifery services, wrote a proposal for  a small projects grant and helped gather data for the mapping of the nursing and midwifery profile in the Americas.
