Autorenporträt
DeeAnn K. Schmucker, MSW, LCSW, graduated from Hesston College in Hesston, Kansas. She received a Bachelor's Degree in Social Work from Bowling Green State University and completed a Master of Social Work Degree, specializing in health care, at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. Throughout her career, DeeAnn has created focused therapies for a wide range of populations. She has worked in long-term care facilities, neonatal intensive care, in-patient acute and rehabilitation hospitals, and in a variety of out-patient settings. Whatever the setting or situation, DeeAnn is always nudging others to take action to improve the quality of their lives. As a health educator, she implemented a walking club and a book club for seniors to maintain their physical and mental abilities and to develop and foster supportive relationships. She became a trusted confidant and mentor, encouraging each participant one step further today than yesterday or one question deeper into the theme of a novel. The interest and trust shown allowed participants to often share aspects of themselves and stories that are part of their life history they had never had the opportunity or been able to share with others before. As a result, healing occurred, and each person's health was taken to a new level. DeeAnn has written a variety of health education courses covering the topics of Mental Health and Retirement, Stress Management, Healthy lifestyle choices for Seniors, and staff training manuals about sensitivity training for Senior Citizen Patients. Collaborating with Kate Lorig, R.N., Dr.P.H., Stanford University School of Medicine Professor and Director, Patient Education Research Center, DeeAnn co-developed a course for patients with chronic pain. By helping these patients understand the pain cycle, the patients could see behaviors that contributed to their pain and make modifications in those behaviors. Recently DeeAnn has broadened her study of pain learning from John E. Leonard, Ph.D, and his NeuroBehavioral Programs, another tool to help patients turn off their pain. DeeAnn is currently President of DeeAnn Schumucker and Associates, a consulting firm specializing in Group Medical Appointments, Chronic Disease Management and Change Management.
