About Me

Hi, I’m Taran Tavares founder of thenursesguide.com. I started The Nurse’s Guide as a way to help make a further impact in the nursing profession while also getting started in it myself.

I attended Indiana University Bloomington where I completed my BSN degree in May of 2023, and shortly after graduation gaining licensure and starting my nursing career. During my time in school, I was fortunate enough to be around a great team of faculty where I was encouraged to grow and develop to continue to chase my dreams to make an impact beyond bedside. One way of doing this was discovering a passion for research.

While at IU, I was able to work closely with a faculty mentor in the honors research program to dive deep in current public health challenges that Indiana continues to face. With a publication in Wiley Research in Nursing & Health, I hope to be able to continue to make contributions to the academic community and influence change in the public health sector. 

Thank you so much for checking out my site. Please bear with me as I continue to grow it and turn it into a impactful platform for the nursing community.
