Two Nursing Students Recognized
Brooke Cook and Summer Mosteller, both nursing students at Cleveland Community College, have each been recognized for exhibiting valued characteristics in future nurses. Both students have been selected to receive the Betty Garrison Award.
Brooke Cook
Cook says her grandmother’s strong influence is one reason she feels called to be a nurse. “She believed in me. I hope she’s looking down on me, smiling and proud,” says Cook. “She pushed me and inspired me to be the person I am today. Because of her, I know that my place is to help others and stand up for what is right.”
Summer Mosteller
Mosteller says she is honored to be receiving the Betty Garrison Award. “The legacy she holds in the nursing field is one of utmost respect, and to be chosen as one who displays her known qualities of patient care excellence, patient advocacy, community service, love of education, and one who is always a friend to everyone is very special. I make it my goal to strive to display these characteristics throughout my nursing career.”
