Meet our new nurse! NHMS is excited to welcome April Stanfill to our clinic! She comes to us with many years of nursing experience, most recently in the OR at NEGMC. She has three children and is a proud North Hall graduate. Welcome back to the Trojan Nation, April!
From the Nurse
Students should bring a refillable water bottle daily. I am seeing many headaches that might be prevented through proper hydration.
Frequent proper hand washing can prevent the spread of contagious illnesses. Wash those germs away every day!
