(Fargo, ND) During National Nurses Week from May 6th to 12th, NDSU is celebrating Meghan Friese and Emily Omvig. They were selected as Student Nurses of the Year by the NDSU School of Nursing.
Friese was named Student Nurse of the Year at NDSU School of Nursing at Sanford Health in Bismarck.
“Meghan dedicates herself to serving and representing the nursing profession. She is professional and respectful with her interactions with peers, faculty, and professional nursing staff,” said Charys Kunkel, director of the NDSU School of Nursing at Sanford Health.
Friese recalls how an interaction with a nurse started her on the path to her career. Her 3-year-old sister was hospitalized on the same day her father was deployed to Iraq.
