Staff Biography
Carolyn Swenson, MSPH, RN
Guidelines Project Manager
Carolyn is an RN and family nurse practitioner who studied public health at the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center (UCHSC). She is a project manager at Colorado Clinical Guidelines Collaborative (CCGC) where she has worked on adult and pediatric immunization projects; depression improvement in primary care; and diabetes, depression, obesity, and immunization guideline committees. Past work includes public health nursing on the Navajo reservation; refugee relief work in Sudan; migrant health care; and program development at a center for survivors of torture and war. From 1989-2002 she worked for the San Luis Valley Health Studies in southern Colorado as the field coordinator of epidemiological research on diabetes, cardiovascular disease and aging; and preparing publications for those studies on depression, cardiovascular disease mortality, and physical activity in older adults. She chose public health because of a strong belief in prevention and a commitment to health care as a human right.
