SARATOGA SPRINGS — In the summer of 2020, the Saratoga Hospital Nursing Organization offered licensed practical nurses (LPNs) of the Ambulatory Practice the opportunity to pursue an associate in applied science (AAS) in Nursing at Maria College.
This program was made possible through funding by the Saratoga Hospital Foundation Nursing Scholarship. In May, five LPNs graduated from the program and are prepared to take the board examination to become a Registered Professional Nurse (RN) of New York State.
The new graduates are Renee Summers, Heide Mahay, Rebecca Stanislowsky, Mikayla Carlson and Sara Morizio.
Registered nurses are academically prepared to assess, plan, implement, and evaluate patient and client outcomes. The support of the Saratoga Hospital Foundation and the Nursing Scholarship is instrumental in providing the members of the Nursing Organization with opportunities for ongoing professional development.
