Nursing LIVES
Natalie came to Berry planning to major in math. A desire to help people (and guidance and from an influential faculty mentor) inspired a shift to nursing. Countless hours in the lab, real-world work experience as a nurse technician during her junior year and international study in Costa Rica gave Natalie the experience, knowledge and confidence she needed to launch her career as an ER nurse at Hamilton Medical Center in Dalton, Georgia.
