us to talk to patients anymore, Dunbar said her biggest fear is that something will happen to a patient because she did something wrong.

“That’s probably every nurses fear,” she said.

Dunbar said some of the challenges she faces are learning how to think like a nurse and learning all the information necessary to be a nurse.

While Dunbar said she thinks there should be more clinical time for students in her program, she said she likes how the program offers a wide variety of clinicals. She said counselors and advisors are easily accessible, and there are nurses and an instructor on hand during clinicals.

After graduation Dunbar plans to apply for the internship in the Coronary Intensive Care Unit and hope to eventually work there as well as go to graduate school and become a nurse practitioner.
