‘To Whom It May Concern:
Tam writing this recommendation for Jillian Dziewisz. a senior BSN student who I am having the
pleasure of instructing this semester in a Community Health Course. She will graduate in December,
2016.
During the clinical experience | assign the students to nine different community areas. They work
‘one day with an RN clinical mentor at each of these sites. They spend a day at the Migrant Camp, Public
Health Department, Free Medical Clinic, Blue Ridge Hospice In-Patient Unit and Blue Ridge Hospice
Home Visits with a Hospice Nurse, Daniel Morgan Middle School, Handley High School, Wilkins
Wellness Center at the University, and one day with me in my Parish Nurse Office at Christ Ey
Church.
pal
At the end of the day I get a report from each clinical mentor as to the ability of the
student. All have commented on Jillian’s interest in the people she meets, her ability
to listen effectively, her excellent assessment skills, her non-judgmental attitude
toward alt with whom she works, and her ability to take her theoretical knowledge
and use it within the clinical area. One patient commented that she was the most
‘outstanding student this semester.
During her time at Shenandoah University she has been active with the SNA. She has
been a valuable member of that organization.
Each student is assigned a person to visit in the home and her lady has been visited
several times already in the semester. She is very able to judge what the lady needs
and how much time to spend. She seems to be enjoying this experience. I want the
students to be out of their comfort zone in a hospital and have to adapt to whatever
the family needs. Her written work both for clinical experiences and her home visits
is excellent. She is able to express herself well. People see her love of others when
they meet her.
I would consider your agency to be fortunate if Jillian would accept employment with
you. Thank you for reading this and if I can answer any questions, please feel free to
call me at 1-540-327-4511 or my private e-mail at Ipnbutterfly@comeast.net.
Sincerely,
wu Sebo
