After 6 years of sitting at a desk, I knew there had to be more to life for me. My cousin, a nurse at Gundersen, told me about the CNA program. It was the best decision I've ever made. The program offered an opportunity to build a solid foundation for my nursing career. It taught me the basics of providing care to patients and gave me confidence that I chose the right path. I'm excited to pursue a nursing career while at Gundersen because they invest in their employees and want to help you grow personally and professionally while offering endless opportunities.
