Timeline

2022

As a leader at OSU's College of Nursing, Melnyk increased their enrollment and hiring of faculty members and rose their school ranking in the U.S. News & World Report. In recognition of her efforts, she was promoted to vice president for health promotion and reappointed dean through 2022. Following her promotion, Melnyk receives the 2017 Sharp Cutting Edge Award from the American Association of Nurse Practitioners for having shown "leadership through innovative services, technologies or advocacy activities that advanced NP practise and patient care on a national level." Likewise, she was also the recipient of the American Organization of Nurse Executives Foundation 2017 Nurse Researcher Award in recognition of "a nurse researcher who has made significant contributions to nursing research and is recognized by the broader nursing community as an outstanding nurse researcher." She continued to study the quality of health care practices across the nation in 2017 by receiving funding from the National Institutes of Health/National Institute for Minority Health and Health Disparities for a study entitled, Healthy Lifestyle Intervention for High-Risk Minority Pregnant Women: A Randomized Controlled Trial. The aim of the study was to test a cognitive behavioural skills building prenatal care intervention program for pregnant minority women experiencing emotional distress.

2018

In 2018, Melnyk received numerous accolades from the medical and nursing community including the American Association of Critical-Care Nurses 2018 Pioneering Spirit Award for her significant contributions that influenced high-acuity and critical care nursing. She was also appointed to sit on the Board of Directors for the National Forum for Heart Disease and Stroke Prevention. The following year, Melnyk was awarded her third “Academy Edge Runner” Honor from American Academy of Nursing for her successful cognitive-behavioral skills building intervention programs. During the COVID-19 pandemic in North America, Melnyk established a partnership between OSU's College of Nursing and Trusted Health, a career platform for nurses. The goal of the partnership was to promote mental health and well-being for travel nurses on the front lines.

She also accepted an appointment to the editor of Worldviews on Evidence Based Nursing, and received an election to the National Institute of Medicine. Based on data including awards, Top 10 rankings, National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding, and National Council Lincensure Examination (NCLEX) passing percentage, Melnyk was named one of 30 most influential nursing deans in 2015. The following year, the third edition of Melnyk's book Evidence-Based Practice in Nursing and Healthcare: A Guide to Best Practice received the 2016 Book of the Year Award from American Journal of Nursing. One of the judges reviewing her book wrote: "This comprehensive text provides a strong foundation for implementing and sustaining EBP in clinical decision making for all levels of nurses, from undergraduate nursing students to doctors of nursing practice and seasoned practitioners. Even beginner students will find the information interesting and will be encouraged to actively engage in EBP to improve patient outcomes." Melnyk also led an evidence-based practices study examining why hospitals that attempt to improve patient outcomes and reduce costs simultaneously often fail. To reach this conclusion, her research team surveyed 276 chief nurse executives across the United States to collect data on how evidence-based practice ranks as a priority in their institutions. In response, more than half reported that it is had limited practised in their organization.

She continued her research into the COPE program and published data in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine which found that students who exercised for 15 to 20 minutes daily were less likely to gain significant weight than those who attended traditional health classes. This was because the students who exercised were taught cognitive techniques to reduce stress and anxiety.

Prior to accepting the position, Melnyk told the hiring committee that she would "infuse evidence-based practice throughout all our programs, to work with hospitals and health care systems in Arizona to really advance EBP." After serving in this role for 20 months, she launched the United States' first master’s degree program in health care innovation and formed partnerships with the Mayo Clinic, Banner Health, Phoenix Children's Hospital, and Dublin City University. As a result, she was the recipient of the 2006 Health Care Hero Innovator of the Year award which "honors someone who breaks ground in the health care field by developing or implementing new technology, treatments, or programs with wide applications."
