Rémi is a member of the pediatric critical care nurse practitioner team and a leader in clinical education and simulation for nurses, residents, fellows and advanced practice nurses in pediatrics and pediatric critical care. 

Dr. Hueckel's scholarly practice is influenced by her clinical experience and commitment to patient safety and high-quality team-based care. Her teaching philosophy is based on communication, teamwork, core competencies of inter-professional education (IPE) and the use of simulation to teach and improve patient safety.  Using these as a framework for innovative learner-centered activities, Dr. Hueckel has influenced the clinical development of pre-licensure and advanced practice nurses as well as pre-clinical and graduate medical learners in the academic and ICU settings.
