He devoted his time to teaching us no matter what the questions were. He truly brought enlightenment to our clinical experiences.
Grayden was nominated by students who offered glowing comments about him. One student noticed this influence, saying: “Grayden is an awesome clinical adjunct! He always goes above and beyond to ensure we fulfill our clinical goals and show us new things. He always has a positive attitude and takes extra time to put together focused reviews for things we are learning in class.” Also “He does an amazing job breaking down complex ideas and helping us understand them. As a clinical group, we told Grayden we were having trouble with ABGs and telemetry that we were learning in our class. So the following week, he had case studies that we worked through as a group to help us connect the information from lecture to patient scenarios we were seeing in clinical.” Another student wrote: “He explains things thoroughly and is so kind and genuine in helping students learn. He has the best attitude and encourages us to step out of our comfort zone while also introducing new enticing things about nursing practice.” A student reflection stated that “He devoted his time to teaching us no matter what the questions were. He truly brought enlightenment to our clinical experiences. Thank you Grayden for your hard work and dedication to teaching us in becoming better nurses for the future.” Another student said “I have learned so much from him with little lessons during Post-Conference or while discussing clinical paperwork. He has such an intelligent nursing mind. I am glad I got to learn from him and got to experience a clinical rotation that I will never forget! Thank You, Grayden!”
