Name: Jacquelyn B
Sprott Shaw College
As the population of BC continues to age, healthcare is becoming a leading growth industry in the province.
Our baby boomer curve is shifting into their 60’s and 70’s. Their needs for flexible healthcare services will continue to grow. There is a need for more healthcare workers of various skills: from doctors and nurses to healthcare office workers and assistants.
Jacquelyn B started her Practical Nursing program at the East Vancouver Campus of Sprott Shaw College in June of 2011.
She had reservations at first. School is a big time and financial investment.
“When I first started the program, I was hesitant because I wasn’t sure if the school would be recognized as a credible school when I graduated and seeking employment,” she said.
However all those doubts were dispelled when Jacquelyn started her 1st practicum at Eagle Ridge Hospital.
“After a couple of weeks I was praised often for my competent nursing skills. The nursing staff was very impressed with the education I received at Sprott-Shaw College.”
After that practicum, Jacquelyn moved over to her final practicum at Lions Gate Hospital.
Again she had the same experience.
“Not only was Sprott Shaw College recognized, but the nursing staff was very impressed with my skills.”
“I feel very confident that I could go to any Hospital with my Diploma.”
With thirteen campuses across BC and the Lower Mainland, and with numerous career courses, Sprott Shaw offers much flexibility for students, whether just out of high school or mature and with families.
Whether you are looking for Surrey nursing courses or an Abbotsford accounting program, Sprott Shaw has options for you.
