From colorful expressions to thoughtful conversations, this exercise sparked insight, empathy, and connection. So much creativity in the room as future nurses learned to better understand the emotional experiences of themselves and others. 🖍️❤️

Student of the Week Spotlight: Jai Kinley

Join us in celebrating Jai Kinley, our Student of the Week, recognized for her exceptional clinical performance in the Radiography Program!

🏆 Nominated by Program Director Steven Faulkner, Jai impressed not only her instructors—but also two patients, who praised her in their Press Ganey surveys. One patient wrote:
👉 “Jai did an excellent job of helping me with my x-rays, treating me with respect and dignity… She should be rewarded for her excellent performance and care.” 🌟

To honor her achievement, TCC leadership surprised Jai in class with a certificate, a Student of the Week t-shirt, and a $500 scholarship!

A passionate future radiologic technologist, Jai shared:
🩻 “I chose The Christ College because of its strong reputation for blending rigorous academic instruction with hands-on clinical experience.”
💬 “I knew I wanted a more impactful career in healthcare… The radiography program at Christ has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.”
💙 “The early clinical exposure makes everything we learn feel real and applicable… I love that Christ College prepares students not just to pass the boards, but to thrive.”

Jai is currently gaining hands-on experience in CT and MRI, with aspirations to become a multi-modality radiologic technologist.

👏 Congratulations, Jai! Your dedication to compassionate, high-quality patient care makes you a true standout!

💅💙 Caring Beyond the Classroom 💙💅
Every Thursday, under the guidance of Prof. Sheri Johnson-Strodes, our NUR 463 nursing students bring their compassion and creativity to Bayley Place Senior Day Center in Delhi as part of their community clinical experience.

Each week, students design meaningful ways to engage with members—and this week, they're focusing on 1:1 interactions to promote wellness, connection, and joy. Their self-care activity includes nail painting for the women and relaxing hand massages for the men, creating moments of dignity, kindness, and human connection.
