Biography

My name is Dr. Mary K. Jones. I have a passion for learning so it is no surprise that I am a “3-peat” FNU graduate. I was in CNEP class 32/5, CFNP class 56 and DNP class 6. I obtained my MSN from Case Western Reserve University while attending FNU as a CNEP student. My most recent certification is as an Emergency Nurse Practitioner which I obtained in August 2013. My teaching career started many years ago when I was working as a Labor and Delivery nurse striving to become a midwife. I taught clinical practicums for Shawnee State University, Ohio University—Chillicothe, Belmont Technical College, and Ohio University—Zanesville while advancing my own education. I have been teaching for FNU for nearly 6 years, first as a Regional Clinical Faculty and then as course Faculty in PC 617 and most recently in PC 701. I have also been a clinical bound team leader for the past 2.5 years. My passion for learning is exceeded only by my passion to help others learn. For fun I like to read, crochet, participate in charity 5K walks, compete in triathlons and learn something new every day! My husband, four grown children and three grandchildren are my life and support. I am excited to be working with you, helping you achieve your dream to become a midwife or nurse practitioner. If I can help you in any way, I am merely a phone call or email away! Warm Regards, Dr. Mary K. Jones, DNP, CNM, FNP-BC, ENP-BC, PMHNP-BC
