“I love the aspect of helping someone in need and the reward you get from that.”

Judy’s Story

Before choosing Sumner College to pursue her nursing education, Judy had already been working as a CNA for a few years. After gaining experience in healthcare, she knew she wanted to become a nurse. “I love the aspect of helping someone in need, and the reward you get from that.”

She found out about Sumner College from a friend who had graduated from the nursing program. After talking with the staff at the school, she knew the program was a perfect fit for her.

Judy knows she made the right decision by choosing Sumner College. “I am grateful to Sumner College for allowing me to complete the practical nursing program. I had a wonderful experience throughout the program, and I enjoyed all the experience I gained during my time here.”

Judy plans to gain experience as an LPN before continuing her education. Her eventual goal is to earn a BSN.

Judy is employed as an Licensed Practical Nurse at Total Care Home Health.
