Dr. Vickie Wenzl, EdD, MSN, APRN-CNS, RN
Nursing is not a career as much as it is a profession. Each student is an adult and an individual and therefore must be treated as such. Each student with the help of their professor should gain important knowledge that will help them with critical thinking, becoming life long learners,and know how to work with evidenced based practice. The professor and the student are equal partners in the learning process with my expertise in the nursing profession used to encourage the student to learn and to want to continue learning to become a highly skilled nurse.
