To whom it may concern,

This reference is given concerning Ms. Summer Spiva, a prospective May 2016 graduate nursing
student at Shenandoah University. I have had the opportunity to know Ms. Spiva as an advisee
and nursing student during two didactic/clinical courses.
Ms. Spiva has demonstrated her perfect reliability in attendance and preparation for class work,
positive attitude toward new learning experiences, timely work submission, and high standards
for presenting the expected course work. Ms. Spiva works very well with her peers and
welcomes opportunities for new and diverse interactions. Ms. Spiva is compassionate and
exhibits competent and therapeutic interactions with her patients, peers, and other health care
professionals.
If you have any questions, please contact me at 540-678-4452 (Office) or 443-831-1235 (Cell).
