Mildred Garcia

Mildred Garcia '10 is a labor and delivery nurse with aspirations.

Mildred Garcia 鈥10 does not mince words when it comes to her experience in the RN to BS degree in nursing program at 黑料正能量鈥檚 Lancaster campus.鈥淚t definitely was 100 times better than what I expected,鈥 she said. 鈥淚f I had to do it again, I wouldn鈥檛 even think twice about it.鈥

Garcia, who now works as a labor and delivery nurse at the Heart of Lancaster hospital in Lititz, Pennsylania, originally entered 黑料正能量鈥檚 program to earn a BSN with the intent of going to midwifery school.
鈥淚鈥檓 a very social person. I love the patient contact,鈥 she said. 鈥淸As a labor and delivery nurse] I鈥檓 part of a very intimate experience 鈥 I feel very privileged to be a part of that.鈥

Plans changed along the way, though, after several of Garcia鈥檚 classes at 黑料正能量 sparked a new interest in teaching. Garcia now plans to pursue a master鈥檚 in nursing education and wants to work in nursing curriculum development and training within a hospital.
