Personal Note
I believe I am called to be a Nurse. As a Nurse, I have had the opportunity to care for the sick and the vulnerable. As a Christ-follower, I have realized my profession has allowed me access to care for not only the physical needs of my patients but also the spiritual and emotional as well. I am honored to be chosen for such noble work.
