Madi Glen is an alumna of the class of 2025. She is working in Randall Children Hospital in the NICU 🏥⚕️
We asked Madi:
1) What inspired you to choose Walla Walla University’s School of Nursing, or what did you enjoy most about your time here?
“Initially I thought of walla walla because of my sister who also attended! Overall, I loved the small class sizes at the nursing campus and the community :)”
2) What is something you miss about your WWU experience?
“I miss going to coffee shops with my friends for endless hours of delirious studying!”
3) Where are you working now, and what was your path to your current position?
“I am working at Randall Children Hospital in the NICU. I volunteered here and then applied and prayed … a lot!! Then I got the job!”
4) What have been some highlights or memorable moments in your nursing career so far?
“Some highlights of my career so far are all the firsts- first time teaching a dad how to change a diaper, first IV, first code, etc.”
5)How do you enjoy your current role, and what aspects of your work are most meaningful to you?
“I love my job and could not be happier with my experience so far! The attention to detail and the unique relationship of the nurse and the infants parents are my favorite parts!”
6) What advice or tips would you share with current nursing students about being successful in nursing school and beyond?
“It is all worth it!!! 🙌🏻🎉😊
Nursing school is overwhelming but also fun! People always told me “take advantage of your clinicals” but I didn’t know really what they meant. Try to think if you were the nurse how you would manage all these tasks and responsibilities. You’ve got this🫶🏻”
