Wendy Chicoine’s eureka moment came after her middle daughter, Paige, was diagnosed with an eye-movement disorder. “I went home and told my husband that I was going back to school for nursing,” she says. “To this day it’s a decision I’ve never questioned. I know I’m in the right place.” Since 2011, Chicoine, 46, has been a fixture at Rhode Island College’s School of Nursing. She earned her R.N. to B.S.N. in 2013; her M.S.N. in public health and community nursing in 2018 and received a Doctor of Nursing practice degree at the May commencement.
