Alice in NANDAIand

This entertainment was created for the 1991 student–faculty banquet at the University of Rochester School of Nursing, which honored the graduating seniors. Traditionally, groups of juniors, seniors, and faculty present a skit at this event that recalls some aspect of the year's activities. Because nursing diagnosis received more emphasis in junior coursework this year than in previous years, the faculty agreed to use this theme for their presentation. The author volunteered because she enjoys writing parody and has a fondness for the works of Lewis Carroll. The cast, which included one member of the NANDA Board of Directors, consisted of undergraduate faculty from all clinical areas.
