The Nursing Pharmacology class the Orlando campus had two guest speakers recently. The first speaker was Pran M. Kar, MD, FACP, FASN, FAAFP, FACIP. He gave a special presentation on his research on Stevens Johnson Syndrome. The second speaker was Gabbi Norman who is an RN and a graduate of the Keiser University Orlando Nursing program. Gabbi is also a survivor of Stevens Johnson Syndrome. At one point Gabbi was given a 15% chance of survival. Gabbi eloquently shared her experience as the patient with the nursing students. The students stated that they felt like they learned a great deal of information from the expert (Dr. Kar) physician then the perspective of the patient (Gabbi).
My instructors believed in me. They were more than instructors, they tried to get to know you as a person and tried to understand your goals so they could push you towards them. Student services helped me find a job before I even graduated. Everyone was dedicated to my overall success.
