Kari Gire Dahl

Dahl has been working as a nurse in the transplant surgery ward at Rikshospitalet since 2008 and has served as a development nurse in the department for several years. She currently works 50% as a nurse and 50% as a post-doctoral researcher and holds a master's degree in nursing science (2015) and a PhD (2020) from the UiO, and she has previously studied psychology.

Methodologically, Dahl has experience with quantitative methods related to PROM and various qualitative methods (individual interviews, focus group interviews, and participant observation). Through her PhD and post-doctoral work, she has primarily focused on health literacy among kidney transplant recipients. In her post-doctoral project, she aims to develop an intervention to increase health literacy in kidney transplant recipients with immigrant backgrounds and to enhance health literacy sensitivity among nurses.
