The highlight of nursing school so far has been my Adult Medical-Surgical clinical. I learned so much during this clinical experience and had the opportunity to remove IVs, insert an NG tube, go to the OR, and much more.
Before nursing school, I was studying at the University of Washington getting my pre-requisites. When I first went to university I wanted to major in political science, but I quickly realized my passions were in healthcare and decided to pursue nursing.
I chose Emory because I felt like it was a perfect fit for me. I came from out-of-state not knowing much about Georgia at all, but after attending Emory orientations and events I knew it was the place for me. Everyone is so kind and welcoming at the Emory Nursing School and even as a transfer student I quickly felt at home here.
My favorite thing to do in Atlanta is going to the Beltline and walking from Piedmont Park to Ponce City Market.
