Sandy’s Story
Sandy J. was working as a CNA prior to coming to Sumner’s LPN program. She knew at the age of 15 she wanted to work in healthcare and work with the geriatric population because it was like seeing 80 grandparents all at once! She is now a Resident Services Director at Parkview Memory Care and plans to take her career and education even further in hopes of running her own care facility one day. She is so grateful for the opportunities Sumner provided her, especially the friends she made along the way, and all of the wonderful instructors.
