Philippa Seaton is a New Zealand academic, and is a full professor at the University of Otago, specialising in nursing education.

Academic career

Seaton completed a Master's degree titled The experiences of registered nurses in polytechnic baccalaureat degree programmes: an interpretive phenomenological study at Massey University in 1998.[1] She completed a PhD at Griffith University on Australian nursing education.[2][3] Seaton then joined the faculty of the University of Otago, rising to associate professor in 2018 and full professor in 2022.[4][5] She is the director of the Centre for Postgraduate Nursing Studies at Otago, and is based in Christchurch.[2][5]

Seaton's research focuses on nursing education, and the nursing workforce. She is interested in how technology such as telehealth can be used to improve service delivery, but also how technology can be used to improve health worker education. Seaton has researched post-disaster recovery in education, based on recovery of nursing students and educators after the Christchurch earthquakes, but with outcomes applicable to other disasters such as pandemics.[6] As a founding member of the Canterbury Nursing Research Alliance, Seaton coordinates research with the Canterbury District Health Board, Ara Institute and Canterbury University.[5] She also has research collaborations with the School of Nursing at University of Melbourne, and with clinical partners such as Nurse Maude.[5][7] Seaton was a member of the executive committee of the Council of Deans of Nursing and Midwifery in Australia.[7]
