Director of the Nursing Lisa Brock said, “We are incredibly proud of this third cohort of nursing apprentices. These students are stepping into meaningful roles within our local healthcare facilities while building confidence, skills, and professionalism. The continued support from our employer partners allows us to provide opportunities that truly change lives and strengthen our community.”
