Beverly Louise Malone[1] (born 1948[2]) is the chief executive officer of the National League for Nursing in the United States. Prior to assuming this position in February 2007 she served as general secretary of the Royal College of Nursing in the United Kingdom for six years.

Early life

Malone is the eldest of seven siblings. Her mother worked as a tax auditor for the Internal Revenue Service and her father was a train engineer. She was raised in Elizabethtown,[3][4]Шаблон:Rp in rural Kentucky, in the segregated deep south of the United States[2] by her great-grandmother.[5]

University education and nursing/academic career (1970–1996)

Malone obtained a bachelor's degree in nursing from the University of Cincinnati in 1970.[6] From 1970 she worked as a nurse in Newark and Irvington (both New Jersey),[6] obtaining a master's degree in adult psychiatric nursing from Rutgers University in Newark in 1972.[1] In 1972 she was appointed Instructor of Psychiatric Nursing at Wayne State University in Michigan. From 1973 she was a specialist nurse, professor and administrator at University Hospital, Cincinnati.[6] She obtained her PhD in clinical psychology from University of Cincinnati in 1981[1][6][7] and was then Assistant Administrator of the Medical Centre.[3][8] In 1986 Malone was made dean of the School of Nursing at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University, a historically black university.[4]Шаблон:Rp She became Vice Chancellor in 1994.[3] In North Carolina, she also served on a number of public bodies (including the Governor's Task Force on Nursing Shortage, the North Carolina Commission on Health Services, and the Board of Directors of the Adolescent Pregnancy Prevention Program).[3]

President of the American Nurses Association (1996–2000)

In 1996 Malone was elected President of the American Nurses Association (ANA), an organization representing 180,000 nurses throughout the United States and based in Washington. She was the second African-American to hold this position.[4][9] She served two terms lasting to 2000. President Bill Clinton appointed her as a member of the US delegation to the World Health Assembly, the governing body of the World Health Organization[3] in 1998 and 1999.[9] She was later to be appointed to a similar position by Prime Minister Tony Blair, in 2006.[9]

During her presidency, Malone served on President Bill Clinton's Advisory Commission on Consumer Protection and Quality in the Health Care Industry[1] and in March 1998 she was appointed to the Health Care Quality Measurement and Reporting Committee.Шаблон:Citation needed She also represented U.S. nurses in the Congress of Nurse Representatives of the International Council of Nurses.Шаблон:Citation needed and served on the board of directors of the National Patient Safety Partnership,[9] a collaboration with the Department of Veterans Affairs, the American Medical Association and other national health care organizations.Шаблон:Citation needed14484

Deputy assistant secretary for health (1999–2001)

From 2000 she was appointed by Bill Clinton to the post of deputy assistant secretary for health within the United States Department of Health and Human Services,[2] the highest position that a nurse had ever held in the US government.[3]

General Secretary of the Royal College of Nursing (2001–2006)

Шаблон:Quote box In 2001 Malone moved to the United Kingdom when she was appointed to the post of General Secretary of the Royal College of Nursing (RCN), the largest professional union of nursing staff in the world,[1][3] succeeding Christine Hancock.[4]Шаблон:Rp This was somewhat surprising; as she later wrote "How could the RCN want an American, an African American to run the most prestigious professional nursing trade union in the world? [Malone, 2007][4]Шаблон:Rp[8] Clinton is said to have smoothed the way politically by "having a word" with Tony Blair and Gordon Brown[4]Шаблон:Rp She was to remain in this post until January 2007.[6][7][10]

She was also a member of the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) and represented the RCN at the European Federation of Nurses Associations (EFN), the Commonwealth Nurses Federation, and the International Council of Nurses (together with the RCN president).[10]

She was at first the subject of considerable media attention and some controversy, partly because of the novelty of an American holding such a political post in Britain, but also because of her generous remuneration package. There was also criticism of her mother, Dorothy Black, receiving free eye surgery under the National Health Service soon after her arrival in spite of having paid no British taxes or insurance contributions. Officials stated that her mother not been given preferential treatment and, as a resident or dependent relative of a resident, was entitled to the same free healthcare as anyone else.[6][11] She was also criticized for attending a Labour Party event as a guest, because of the traditional party-political neutrality of her employer.[11]

In 2003 she became a member of the steering committee of the NHS Modernisation Agency.[2] In 2006, Tony Blair appointed her as a member of the UK delegation to the World Health Assembly. She had previously represented the United States in a similar role in 1998 and 1999.[9]

In an interview with the Guardian newspaper before returning to the United States, while criticizing job cuts and cost cutting in the British National Health Service, she spoke favorably of the system, calling it "a treasure" and praising a system where healthcare is a right rather than a privilege.[6] Though treated somewhat roughly by the British media, she welcomed the greater "visibility" of the nursing profession in Britain, compared with the United States.[6]
