Barbara J. Braden (November 7, 1943 – June 24, 2023)[1] was an American nurse, nurse educator, college administrator, and medical researcher. She was co-developer of the Braden Scale for Predicting Pressure Ulcer Risk, and held several administrative positions at Creighton University, including dean of the Graduate School from 1995 to 2006, and dean of the College of Professional Studies from 2002 to 2011. She was inducted into the Nebraska Nursing Hall of Fame.

Early life and education

Braden was born in North Platte, Nebraska, the daughter of William Braden and Norene Klosen Braden (later Duggan).[2] Her father died in Germany during World War II,[3] and she was raised by her widowed mother on her grandparents' farm near Stapleton, Nebraska, and in Griswold, Iowa after her mother remarried. She graduated from Mount Loretto High School in Council Bluffs, Iowa.[2] She trained as a nurse at St. Joseph's School of Nursing in Omaha, graduated from Creighton University with a bachelor's degree in nursing in 1973, and earned a master's degree in nursing from the University of California, San Francisco in 1975. She completed doctoral studies at the University of Texas at Austin in 1988.[4][5]

Career

At Creighton University, Braden was a professor of medical surgical nursing. She was dean of the Graduate School from 1995[6] to 2006, interim academic vice president in 2002, and dean of the College of Professional Studies from 2002 until her retirement in 2011. She received the College of Nursing Alumni Merit Award in 1989, the Distinguished Administrator Service Award in 2008, and the Alumni Achievement Citation in 2013.[7][8]

As part of her dissertation research, Braden and Nancy Bergstrom developed the Braden Scale for Predicting Pressure Ulcer Risk in 1987,[9] an assessment tool which was soon widely used in healthcare facilities, including hospitals and nursing homes.[10] She founded a company, Prevention Plus, for marketing educational and support materials related to use of the Braden Scale.[11]

Braden was a fellow of the American Academy of Nursing. She was inducted into the Nebraska Nursing Hall of Fame.[12] In 1991, she was named a "Woman of Distinction" by the Omaha YWCA.[13] In 2001, she received a lifetime achievement award from European Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel.[3] She served on the boards of the Madonna Rehabilitation Hospitals and the Nebraska AIDS Project.[14]
