Welcome To Nurse Assisting
Hello and welcome to our class. I am pleased to have the opportunity to teach first and second year Nurse Assisting. I have been a Registered Nurse and Assistant Head Nurse on a surgical unit in a hospital setting for over 20 years, as well as a school nurse at Barry Tech. I very much enjoy the challenges and responsibilities of working as a teacher with our high school students.
