COURT HOUSE — At its April 27 meeting, the Atlantic Cape Community College (ACCC) Board of Trustees bade farewell to a teacher who dedicated 26 years of her life to training nursing nurses in this community.
The board approved a resolution extolling the virtues of Barbara Mottola, assistant professor in the college’s school of nursing/allied health.
“The Board extends its best wishes to Professor Mottola and her family for a very happy and healthy future,” the board’s resolution stated.
It was noted at the board meeting that anyone who has been treated in any of the medical facilities in the Atlantic and Cape May County areas was likely touched by Mottola, because she’s trained so many local nurses.
Mottola, a Margate resident, was praised by her colleagues who said her instructional technique was “impeccable” and her steadfast commitment to the nursing profession has yielded “significant enhancements” to College curriculum and the student experience.
At the college, Mottola served as the departmental liaison for Instructional Technology, mentor for new Nursing faculty, team leader for the National League for Nursing Association Accreditation, faculty advisor to the Nursing Club, and Co-chair of the Nursing Curriculum Committee.
Professionally, Mottola was a member of the New Jersey Nurse’s Association, regional health care providers, American Nurse’s Association, National League for Nursing, and Sigma Theta Tau National Honors Society of Nurse Educators.
Cape May – Governor Murphy says he doesn't know anything about the drones and doesn't know what they are doing but he does know that they are not dangerous. Does anyone feel better now?
