Job Corps Gives A School Dropout Crack At Practical Nurse Career
Donna Wallace an 18 year old from McMechen in the northern Panhandle says she will graduate as a practical nurse from a Job Corps center next Feb 21 after four months of class work and eight months at St Francis Hospital. She praises the center’s smaller classes and individualized attention, notes a delay in starting the program was due to it being the first of its kind, and mentions design of nursing hats by herself and a roommate. It is one of 11 West Virginia girls at the Charleston center and she disputes a Charleston paper story about misbehavior there.
