And the Winner is ... Donya Walker! And the Winner of the chooseNursing.com $1000 Shopping Spree is — Donya Walker.

"I read about your Ambassador Program in NurseWeek magazine and went to the web site to check it out." Donya responded to the "call-to-action" and became a RN Ambassador. "One day when I was picking up my kids at school, I went in and told them I would love to come in on Career Days and talk about nursing." |

As a RN Ambassador, Donya is a natural. Her passion, knowledge, and enthusiasm
is easily translated as she shares her personal nursing stories, provides
"how to" information and enhances the image of the professional
nurse. "It was interesting to learn what kids thought about nursing.
They thought all nurses did was take temperatures and make beds. It was
great to see that the kids were getting excited. The presentation tools
made it easy for the kids to participate and it became an inter-active experience."
Donya plans to continue to use the downloadable presentation tools and posters as she does outreach in the elementary schools in her area. "I'm thinking, it might be better to start talking to kids that are younger — it's a good time to catch them. It's how I started, I was around 9 or 10 years old when I knew I wanted to be a nurse." Donya enjoys speaking to kids of all ages about nursing. "I think the fun thing about the Ambassador Program is that it reminds me of what I love about nursing. It's easy and exciting when you talk about what you love to do." Congratulations Donya, RN Ambassador |
