Emily Burritt BSN RN OCN“NURSING IS AN ART: AND IF IT IS TO BE MADE AN ART, IT REQUIRES AN EXCLUSIVE DEVOTION AS HARD A PREPARATION, AS ANY PAINTER’S OR SCULPTOR’S WORK; FOR WHAT IS HAVING TO DO WITH DEAD CANVAS OR DEAD MARBLE, COMPARED WITH HAVING TO DO WITH THE LIVING BODY, THE TEMPLE OF GOD’S SPIRIT? IT IS ONE OF THE FINE ARTS; I HAD ALMOST SAID THE FINEST OF FINE ARTS.” – FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE |
Education |
I began my educational career at Monroe Community College. I remained there for three semesters working on prerequisite courses for the nursing program. I transferred to SUNY Brockport where I completed the remainder of my prerequisite courses and entered the traditional nursing program in my Junior year. I completed my Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree in the spring of 2011. I am currently in the Master of Science in Nursing Education track at Roberts Wesleyan College and will complete my degree in the spring of 2016.
