Jessica Lightle, RN

Owens Community College Alumni ’24 – Registered Nursing

“Having an interaction and an idea of a multitude of different healthcare occupations helped me and will continue to help me as a future nurse because I have an understanding of what their scope entails. It fosters a collaboration which you need, especially in a hospital setting or a long-term care setting with those different specialties. I feel like I really learned a lot. Even though I worked in healthcare for a very long time, there are things that I learned that I maybe thought that I knew but I did not know.”
