The class is so informative and I learned so much about OSHA and more. The speakers are so smart and have such a passion for teaching us a new and challenging medical field. Lynn Shough is super fun, happy, love her! She is always making sure that I get an answer to my questions. Keep it up, Lynn! Lambert Parker keeps me alert! Love his passion for providing information. Overall, the class is fun, and everyone is so nice. -Attendee, March 2016

I truly enjoyed the physicians being such a big part of the classes…As far as the physicians that lectured, I appreciate the fact that they recognized the nurses and appreciated our role in the practice. Dr. Parker, in particular, made me feel as though he had a great appreciation of the Nursing/IV Staff. -Attendee, March 2016

The experience was well worth the trip. Some new techniques will most likely be implemented in my office in the near future. -Attendee, March 2016
