VALERIE DEMATEO Nursing
Valerie loves that Stevenson ’ s nursing program is supportive rather than competitive . Students want each other to do well and don ’ t need to compete for spots in the program . “ It ’ s almost like a big family among the students . And , the faculty make themselves available to students who ask for help .” Clinical experiences at Sinai Hospital , the University of Maryland St . Joseph Medical Center , and the University of Maryland Medical Center have allowed Valerie to apply her knowledge to real situations in hospital environments . “ Each course has a specific , meaningful purpose in the curriculum , which becomes evident during clinicals . I ’ ve learned so much from Stevenson and I feel very prepared to practice nursing .”
