52 Faces - Dennis Aschbrenner
When Dennis Aschbrenner retired from the Navy in 1989 as a chief hospital corpsman, he knew his civilian career would need to relate to his experience in the medical field. In the search for ways to make himself more marketable to employers, he found the associate’s degree in nursing program at Coastal Carolina Community College. For him, it was the perfect fit.
He was one of the few male students in the program - one of three - but he obtained his associate’s as a Registered Nurse and found work locally at Onslow Memorial Hospital. After a 22 year civilian career at OMH, Aschbrenner found a new use for his nursing skills - healing with the power of words rather than medicine.
