    Hi Vicky

    Congratulations on finishing!

    I'll always remember Barb, Fran, Ginger, Karen, Lillie and the other clinical instructors. Getting my RN from Mendocino College was the best. Clear, supportive, and friendly which is VERY rare in RN education.

    How did YOU like the program? Where are you looking for jobs? Will you leave the area or try to stay there? I wish you good luck in finding work.

    Yes, I've been an ER nurse for 8 months and it's by far the most challenging RN work I can possibly imagine. 3-4 patients at a time. Any one of them can code in a moment and you have to keep on top of them constantly. It is the most demanding job I have ever had in my life but it is a good job.

    Please keep in touch and let me know how you do once you get out there. And tell Barb, Fran and Ginger in particular Ken said Hi. They are special people to me. )

    Thank you for saying Hello and telling me you made it through! I'm glad for you, Vicky!

    Ken, RN
