CHARLINE PYSHER

Nursing Activities: Service trips to Jamaica, West Virginia and Honduras, worked as student nurse at Noble Hospital in Westfield. Future plans: Travel to Ghana with Volta Aid Foundation from August to December, and plans to work at Noble Hospital when she returns. Fun fact: Charline is accepting donations toward her trip to Ghana, for which she will not be paid but will be provided with housing and meals. She hopes to put the donations toward medical supplies and other resources for the residents of Ghana.

Working as a student nurse prepared me to deal with critical issues and real world problems in a way a classroom setting cannot. I experienced situations like medication errors and screaming patients, all of which occur every day in healthcare.
