Dr. Goldie is an Assistant Professor in the School of Nursing. She has conducted a variety of research studies which utilize health administrative datasets. Her research has two primary foci. The first focuses on investigating cardiovascular risk and disease among people who suffer from mental health disorders. Her findings have provided compelling evidence for a renewed focus on the antecedents to poor physical health in this population. She also investigates preventative interventions offered by nurses in clinical settings. She is specifically interested in tobacco/nicotine use, exercise interventions, nursing roles in the delivery of preventative services, and psychiatric medication monitoring. The second focus of Dr. Goldie’s research is focused on measuring health services outcomes associated with access to palliative care.
