Bitonte College of Health and Human Services Department of Nursing 330.941.3293, April 29, 2015 To whom it may concern, Ihave the pleasure of writing a letter of reference for Ellice Hayek. | have been fortunate to be her preceptor in her Nursing Educator Role Practicum during the Spring, 2015 semester. Ellice was amazing. In this role she was very helpful to both the students and myself. She consistently remained calm even under stressful conditions. Ellice was never hesitant to Participate in a new activity and always completed everything she did in a conscientious manner. Even in unfamiliar situations, Ellice would view the challenge as “good practice.” Ellice has been an exceptional student both in the clinical setting and in the classroom. She will graduate with a Master of Science in Nursing degree with a 4.0 GPA. For Ellice, her book knowledge combined with her exceptional ability to be an educator in the classroom and clinical setting gives her an edge over most other graduating MSN students. Ellice will excel in whatever Position she chooses to pursue!
