Student Comment
You may want to let your students know that even though the sfcc
program feels disorganized at times, the education that they are receiving
is a good one that wholly prepares them for taking the NCLEX and
starting as a new nurse. I am receiving a lot of praise for my level of
competence as a new grad on my floor. I hit the floor two weeks ago and I
am already taking two patients independently, and they are pretty heavy
cases. Sooo, thanks again for everything!
Chritus-St. Vincent Hospital
I wanted to let you know how pleased I
have been working with your students;
the graduating class in December was
such a joy to work with and they are
doing really good here. We already have
several who have passed their boards.
University of New Mexico Hospital
Our clinical instructor, Donna Brown, at
UNM Hospital said something really nice
that I thought I'd pass on to you. She said
she was impressed with our level of
understanding and our quality of care.
She said the "program up in Santa Fe"
must be really good. She complemented
us saying, "You are a great representation
for your school. Good job."
Veterans Hospital
I would like to take this opportunity to
express how much the 5D staff enjoy
participating in the Santa Fe Community
College student nursing clinical time.
The students are always prepared when
they arrive. Their enthusiasm and
willingness to learn is noticed and greatly
appreciated by the patients as well as the
staff. It is a joy to have students from
SFCC come to 5D.
Comments For EMSI
Chief, Dave Huckabee, City of Santa Fe Fire “We
appreciate the collaboration and willingness of SFCC to
work with us and customizing our training needs. This
partnership has allowed us a flexibility in the
community we have not had before.”
“I have never had an instructor take the time to work
with me and explain pharmacology to me in the manner
that Ms. Young has. Ashley never judged me and
worked with me so that I did pass on my first attempt.”,
EMT Basic – graduate Brian Neuland
“It is a place where patients matter, people matter, and I
mattered regardless of what occurred in my life.” Armit
Khalsa, Paramedic graduate, class of 2008.
Comments For Medical Asst.
I was so impressed with Leah Fulton, I
called and asked when the next graduates
would be ready to move into the work
force.
Comments For Dental Health
Dr. Peck wanted to thank you for sending
Weiying Collier her way and for doing such a
great job with these students. Weiying is one
example of the wonderful teaching you are
providing to these students.
I can't overstate how valuable your program is
within the local community, and presenting the
field of dentistry in favorable light.
Comments For Fitness Education
My wife and I use the facility at least 4
times a week. We love the staff and
faculty there. The facility is always so
clean and the equipment is wonderful.
I have told so many people about how
wonderful this facility is. The classes are
fabulous and instructors are so
professional.
