Paige Smith not only has been a role model in my eyes as a fellow student but in the clinical setting as well. She always goes the extra mile with her patients and throughout clinical always lended a hand when needed. Her drive to become a nurse showcases her hard work in the classroom but also how compassionate she is in the clinical setting.

During a time at clinical that I can distinctly remember she not only took exceptional care of her patients but also through her extensive knowledge as a CNA was able to help out other students who needed help as well as CNA's on the floor. She never complained about helping another student and was eager to share her knowledge with others when they were unsure of how to handle a task. She is someone to admire and look up to and I'm certain that she will make an extraordinary nurse.
