She Was the Best Student Ever Assigned to Humber River Hospital

She Was the Best Student Ever Assigned to Humber River Hospital

It all started with a visit to Anderson. Read Kristine’s journey, written in her own words.

When I started my journey at Anderson College, I felt the warmth of acceptance and dedication from everyone working in this institution. When I did my practicum at Humber River Hospital, I said to myself “I will show everyone that I am from Anderson College and I will perform to my highest standards”. While there, I proudly branded my college as one of the best educational institutions in Canada.

“They were amazed with my services and I remember them saying that I was the best student that was ever assigned to the hospital.”

 

The feedback I received from my practicum supervisor and hospital clients sealed the deal for me. They were amazed with my services and I remember them saying that I was the best student that was ever assigned to the hospital. I have also been requested by my clients to perform phlebotomy for them.

It was confirmation that I did my best and achieved results that I thought my college would be proud of. I salute my Instructor for her unwavering support and guidance. I also thank the school administration and staff for making my dreams come true. I owe a lot to the college, and wherever I go, I will always look back to the time I spent there. I will always love you guys… like family.

Your Student,

Kristine R.
